Identification and Management: Sinusoidal Obstruction Syndrome/Veno-Occlusive Disease Eelated to Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation .
Clinical Journal of Oncology Nursing 2018 Februrary 2
BACKGROUND: Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), also called hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), is a potentially life-threatening complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) that affects about 1 in 7 patients undergoing this procedure. SOS/VOD is caused by the conditioning regimens administered prior to HSCT; in some cases, SOS/VOD results from chemotherapy alone. SOS/VOD usually develops within three weeks following HSCT; however, it can have later onset.
