Abstract/OtherAbstract:
|
We report an infant with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) who had cutaneous manifestations of acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) due to maternofetal lymphocyte engraftment. Histologic and ultrastructural examinations of the skin revealed intracellular vacuoles resembling lipid droplets in the epidermis and dermis, which is not a recognized feature of acute GVHD or SCID. |
