Abstract |
Bone marrow transplantation is associated with numerous cutaneous complications that may be related to the underlying (preexisting) disease, to pretransplant conditioning, to immunosuppression, to concomitant medication, or to graft-versus-host reaction. We describe four bone marrow transplant recipients with the clinical and histologic features of pityriasis rosea, a hitherto unreported association.
