Overview
The differential diagnosis of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome includes other causes of hepatic failure that may have abnormal liver function tests such as increased conjugated bilirubin and alkaline phosphatase or a clinical presentation as right upper quadrant abdominal pain, jaundice or ascites.
Differential Diagnosis
Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome should be differentiated from other causes of hepatic failure like Budd-Chiari syndrome, viral hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, splenic vein thrombosis, portal vein thrombosis and inferior vena cava obstruction that may have a similar presentation with right upper quadrant abdominal pain and ascites. The differential diagnosis is as follows:
Condition | Differentiating signs and symptoms | Differentiating Tests |
---|---|---|
Budd-Chiari Syndrome |
| |
Cirrhosis |
|
Ultrasound findings in cirrhosis are as follows:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]
Abdominal MRI may also be helpful in the diagnosis of portal hypertension. Findings on MRI suggestive of cirrhosis with portal hypertension include:[9][10][11][12]
Transient elastography and the Acoustic Radiation Force Impulse (ARFI) technique are well-established methods for the staging of fibrosis in various liver diseases: [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]
|
Splenic vein thrombosis | Signs and symptoms of:
|
|
Portal vein thrombosis |
|
|
Schistosomiasis |
| |
Inferior vena cava obstruction |
|
|
Nodular regenerative hyperplasia | None |
|
Idiopathic portal hypertension (hepatoportal sclerosis) | None |
|
