Liver disease can be a problem after bone marrow or stem cell transplantation. This presentation discusses the major types of liver disease that may arise in these patients, symptoms and available treatments.

Half of patients who have a stem cell transplant using donor cells (an allogeneic transplant) develop chronic graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD). In up to a third of those patients, GVHD affects the mouth, esophagus, stomach and/or GI tract. GVHD can also affect the liver and/or pancreas. This presentation describes the symptoms and treatment options for GI and liver GVHD.

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) frequently affects the gastrointestinal tract and liver after a stem cell transplant using donor cells (allogenic transplant). There are two types of GVHD: acute and chronic. This presentation discusses the incidence, symptoms, risk factors for each and treatment options.

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a condition that can occur after a stem cell using donor cells (an allogenic transplant). This presentation describes how GVHD can affect the mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine, large intestine and liver.
