Overview

Case report shows successful skin reconstruction for refractory cGVHD in a pediatric patient, indicating donor tissue advantages.

Key Points

  • To explore donor skin allografting as a treatment for refractory cutaneous graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD).
  • Case report of a pediatric patient with cGVHD post bone marrow transplant.
  • Split-thickness skin allograft transplantation from the donor's pannus was performed.
  • Literature review on cGVHD biology and treatment mechanisms was conducted.
  • Wounds were largely resolved within 3 months following the allograft transplantation.
  • The patient displayed significant improvement despite prior unsuccessful treatments and infections.
  • Utilization of donor pannus was highlighted as a beneficial approach in this case.
