title: Thymoma-associated cutaneous graft-versus-host-like reaction.
abstract: A 47-year-old man presented with diarrhoea, acquired hypogammaglobulinaemia and a cutaneous graft-versus-host-like reaction in association with a spindle cell thymoma. Graft-versus-host reactions usually occur following allogeneic transplantation or transfusion of immunocompetent lymphoid cells but have been described rarely in the context of a thymoma.
