  • Title: Cellular infiltrates in the target organs associated with acute graft-versus-host disease.
    Author: Renkonen R, Häyry P.
    Journal: Bone Marrow Transplant; 1987 Dec; 2(4):333-46. PubMed ID: 3332181.
    Abstract:
    Acute graft-versus-host disease (AGVHD) has been one of the major obstacles in successful bone marrow transplantation for many years. The histologic manifestations of AGVHD have been well defined but much less is known about the cellular infiltrates in the target organs during AGVHD, the structure of the inflammation is different in different target organs and is not necessarily similar to classical allograft rejection. This review covers, in addition to the histologic approach, the cytologic and functional approaches to the AGVHD associated with inflammatory cells.
