Video Summary

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is an immunological reaction associated with transplantation, which occurs when T cells in the graft tissue react against the tissues of the graft recipient. It is commonly seen in hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation recipients and presents with symptoms like skin rashes, diarrhea, and liver damage.
