Abstract
Bone marrow transplantation is associated with numerous cutaneous comp lications that may be related to the underlying (preexisting) disease, to pretransplant conditioning, to immunosuppression, to concomitant m edication, or to graft-versus-host reaction. We describe four bone mar row transplant recipients with the clinical and histologic features of pityriasis rosea, a hitherto unreported association.
