Abstract

Vitiligo-like changes are an uncommon cutaneous manifestation of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). We report three cases and review the literature of pediatric patients with vitiligo-like changes associated with GVHD. Improved characterization of this phenomenon may lend insight into the biologic pathways that underlie both vitiligo and GVHD.
