Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS) or hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) is a serious complication that occurs, most often occurring in patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), especially in its first thirty days. The morbidity and mortality in this syndrome are considerable, since severe SOS is associated with a mortality of more than 90% in the first hundred days of HSCT. Some risk factors are modifiable, especially those related to transplantation, but when non-alterable factors are present, preventive measures are needed that can reduce the incidence and / or severity of SOS.
