Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome epidemiology and demographics
Editor-In-Chief: C. Michael Gibson, M.S., M.D. [1]; Associate Editor(s)-in-Chief: Husnain Shaukat, M.D [2]
Overview
Overview
The incidence of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome depends on the presence of risk factors, chemotherapy regimen and the clinical criteria used for the diagnosis. The incidence after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant ranges from a low of 10,000 persons per 100,000 persons to a high of 15,000 persons per 100,000 persons. The incidence of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome after autologous hematopoietic cell transplant is below 5,000 persons per 100,000 persons.
