Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD), also known as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome, is a potentially life-threatening complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). VOD affects both adult and pediatric populations alike, with a higher incidence in the allogeneic setting 1. Disease onset is typically within the first 30 days after HSCT 1, although later occurrence has been reported 2. It is characterized by clinical features such as hepatomegaly, jaundice, weight gain, and ascites 3,4.
