A coded histologic study of hepatic graft‐versus‐host disease after human bone marrow transplantation

We tested the hypothesis that liver histology from patients with graft‐versus‐host disease could be distinguished from other common liver diseases. Liver biopsies from 33 allogeneic marrow transplant recipients with acute and chronic graft‐versus‐host disease and 37 nontransplant liver disease patients without graft‐versus‐host disease were recut, restained and coded for blind review.
