PG  - 159-60
AB  - A 5-month-old girl, treated with bone marrow transplantation for severe combined 
      immunodeficiency, developed two episodes of severe acute graft vs. host disease 
      (GVHD) while teething. A dramatic improvement in GVHD was noted after the 
      completion of tooth eruption. It is suggested that the release of interleukin-1, 
      associated with the traumatized gingival tissue, is the triggering mediator for 
      the GVHD.
