While bone marrow transplantation techniques have evolved significantly, left behind have been patients who experience graft versus host disease (GVHD) in acute or chronic forms; but a recent surge of interest and effort spurred by attention from the National Institutes of Health will change this scenario in the near future, and transplant centers in the US and Europe are cooperating in the research. This volume offers a base reference, covering general principles, clinical management, organ site or system-specific manifestations, and special considerations. Editors Vogelsang (oncology, Johsn Hopkins U. School of Medicine) and Pavletic (experimental transplantation and immunology, National Cancer Institute) have brought together 35 contributed chapters on historical aspects, pathophysiology, animal models, risk factors and predictive models, as well as diagnosis and staging, prevention and treatment, ancillary and supportive care, neurological manifestations, secondary malignancies, and design of clinical trials, among other topics.
