“…Oral mucosa involvement may be the sole finding in chronic GVHD. Sicca syndrome of the eyes and the mouth can be seen and pyogenic granuloma formation has been reported as a rare finding (1,4,21,33). Oral mucosa involvement was present in 60.9% of our chronic GVHD patients and six patients had only mucosal lesions without any skin involvement.…”

“…Numerous studies have investigated the immediate effects of chemotherapy and/or radiation on the oral mucosa and other perioral soft tissues, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12] but few have addressed late dental sequelae of cancer treatment received at an early age. Nasam, 13 Kaste et al [14][15][16] observed hypodontia, microdontia, enamel hypoplasia, root stunting, taurodontia, over-retention of primary teeth, and an increased caries index in survivors of childhood cancer.…”

“…Other mucosal lesions that have been associated with chronic oral GVHD are "pyogenic granulomas" (Woo et al, 1996;Gehrke et al, 1986, Lee et al, 1994 and verruciform xanthoma (Allen and Kapoor, 1993). These may be incidental findings, although, hypothetically, the occurrence of "pyogenic granulomas" may be associated with cyclosporine use, since cyclosporine has a significant effect on connective tissue homeostasis, and this effect, coupled with increased tissue turnover at sites of chronic GVHD, may predispose to their occurrence.…”
