Overview
Common risk factors in the development of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome are stem cell transplantation, preexisting liver dysfunction and high-dose conditioning regimens.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors for sinusoidal obstruction syndrome are:[1]
- Stem cell transplantation
- Preexisting liver dysfunction (elevated transaminases, fibrosis or cirrhosis, low pseudocholinesterase level or low albumin level pretransplantation)
- Presence of hepatic metastases
- Advanced age
- Prior radiation treatment of the liver
- High-dose conditioning regimens
- Allogeneic transplantation (compared with autologous transplantation)
