Early chronic graft-versus-host disease – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/298553183

Early chronic graft-versus-host disease is characterised by a lichenoid rash with involvement of oral and occasionally genital mucous membranes. As the disease process continues the skin becomes more poikilodermatous and fibrotic. Reduced tear and saliva production may result in dry eyes and mouth.
