Rationale: Chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) is a systemic immune-mediated complication that occurs in approximately half of patients undergoing allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HCT), and remains the leading cause of late morbidity and mortality. cGVHD involves a heterogeneous group of organic manifestations, many of which mimic autoimmune diseases such as scleroderma, primary biliary cholangitis, Sjögren syndrome and polymyositis.
Patient Concerns: A 60-years-old female with a history of allo-HCT developed de novo cGVHD 11 months after allo-HCT with isolated liver involvement.
