Popis: open 13 no Veno-occlusive disease (VOD), also known as sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), is a life-threatening complication affecting patients undergoing hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). The survival rate is higher when specific therapy is initiated early; thus, improving early, noninvasive diagnosis of VOD/SOS is an important need. In an adult population undergoing HSCT, we aimed to assess the role of liver stiffness measurement (LSM), evaluated by transient elastography (TE), for diagnosing VOD/SOS. Between April 2016 and March 2018, 78 consecutive adult patients with indications for allogeneic HSCT were prospectively included. LSM was performed before HSCT and at days +9/10, +15/17, and +22/24 post-HSCT. New European Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation criteria were used to establish VOD/SOS diagnosis. Four patients developed VOD/SOS (5.1%) during the study period, with a median time of +17 days post-HSCT. A sudden increase in LSM compared with previously assessed values and pre-HSCT values, was seen in all patients who developed VOD/SOS. LSM increases occurred from 2 to 12 days before clinical SOS/VOD appearance. The VOD/SOS diagnostic performance of increased LSM over pre-HSCT assessment showed an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve of 0.997 (sensitivity 75%; specificity 98.7%). LSM gradually decreased following successful VOD/SOS-specific treatment. Interestingly, LSM values did not increase significantly in patients experiencing hepatobiliary complications (according to the Common Terminology Criteria) other than VOD/SOS. LSM by TE can be considered a promising method to perform an early, preclinical diagnosis and follow-up of VOD/SOS. open open Antonio, Colecchia; Federico, Ravaioli; Mariarosaria, Sessa; Vanessa, Alemanni Luigina; Elton, Dajti; Giovanni, Marasco; Amanda, Vestito; Maurizio, Zagari Rocco; Barbato, Francesco; Mario, Arpinati; Michele, Cavo; Davide, Festi; Francesca, Bonifazi Antonio, Colecchia; Federico, Ravaioli; Mariarosaria, Sessa; Vanessa, Alemanni Luigina; Elton, Dajti; Giovanni, Marasco; Amanda, Vestito; Maurizio, Zagari Rocco; Barbato, Francesco; Mario, Arpinati; Michele, Cavo; Davide, Festi; Francesca, Bonifazi
