Abstract | Sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (SOS), formerly veno-occlusive disease (VOD), in pediatric cancer patients often presents as a complication of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, and less commonly secondary to nontransplant-associated chemotherapy. Therapy with defibrotide is well-described as standard care for transplant-associated SOS/VOD, but the treatment of nontransplant-associated SOS/VOD is less clear. We report a 3-year-old with relapsed Wilms tumor and recurrent SOS/VOD, with successful use of defibrotide during chemotherapy. A review of pediatric cancer patients with nontransplant-associated SOS/VOD treated with defibrotide revealed 83 patients, and 66 were in remission. This review supports early treatment with defibrotide in patients with nontransplant-associated SOS/VOD. |
