Ibler K., Agner T., Nielsen P.L., Jemec G.B.E.
Summary A 4-year-old boy presented severe dermatitis with recurrent infections. The histological examination showed vacuolization of the basal cells and inflammation of the dermal epidermal junction. Laboratory examinations led to diagnose severe combined immunodeficiency and the dermatitis was attributed to a graft-versus-host reaction due to maternal engraftment. The skin lesions regressed 4 months after allogenic bone marrow transplantation.
Keywords Severe combined immunodeficiency, dermatitis, graft-versus-host reaction.
