Graft versus host disease (GVHD) is an immunologically mediated condition seen in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients. Because of the rarity of the disease, nonspecific presentation, and lack of clinicopathological correlation, its diagnosis is often delayed and prompt treatment is deferred, with increased mortality.
