Background: The cutaneous manifestations of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) can be classified into acute and chronic forms. Acute GVHD is defined as a skin eruption that manifests within 100 days of transplantation, whereas chronic GVHD refers to cutaneous changes that appear 100 days or more posttransplantation. Objective: Although most chronic forms fall within lichenoid and sclerodermoid forms, there is a multitude of less common presentations. These include xerosis, follicular prominence, ichthyosis, and pityriasis rosea–like, eczematous, or psoriasiform lesions. Conclusions: We report a previously unreported manifestation of chronic cutaneous GVHD, specifically calcinosis cutis universalis on a background of sclerodermoid changes.

We present a rare case of calcinosis cutis associated with chronic sclerodermoid graft versus host disease in a 59-year-old male, 13 years following allogenic bone marrow transplantation. The etiology of calcification was thought to be dystrophic. Further research is needed to understand the link between calcinosis cutis and chronic sclerodermoid graft versus host disease to assist with selecting appropriate management for these patients.
