Abstract
|
|
|
|
Eosinophilic fasciitis (EF) is a relatively rare disorder characterized by eosinophilia of the peripheral blood and inflammation of fascia and skin. The etiology of EF is unknown but it can precede or occur concomitantly with hematologic disorders including malignancy. EF can rarely occur after bone marrow transplantation and is a feature of chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD). We report a 49-year-old man who developed EF as the first manifestation of cGVHD after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (AlloHSCT).
