Hepatic sinusoidal obstruction syndrome (HSOS) is a hepatic vascular disease that begins with injury to hepatic sinusoidal endothelial cells, and has a fatality rate of over 80% in its severe form. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment are crucial to delay HSOS progression and reduce mortality. However, clinicians' understanding of the disease is still insufficient, and the clinical manifestations of the disease are similar to liver diseases caused by other etiologies, resulting in a high rate of misdiagnosis. This article mainly introduces the HSOS recent developments in the etiology and pathogenesis, clinical manifestations and auxiliary examinations, diagnostic criteria, treatment, and prevention.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D011763	Pyrrolizidine Alkaloids	A group of ALKALOIDS, characterized by a nitrogen-containing necine, occurring mainly in plants of the BORAGINACEAE; COMPOSITAE; and LEGUMINOSAE plant families. They can be activated in the liver by hydrolysis of the ester and desaturation of the necine base to reactive electrophilic pyrrolic CYTOTOXINS.

D006503	Hepatic Veins	Veins which drain the liver.	Hepatic Vein,Vein, Hepatic,Veins, Hepatic
D006504	Hepatic Veno-Occlusive Disease	Liver disease that is caused by injuries to the ENDOTHELIAL CELLS of the vessels and subendothelial EDEMA, but not by THROMBOSIS. Extracellular matrix, rich in FIBRONECTINS, is usually deposited around the HEPATIC VEINS leading to venous outflow occlusion and sinusoidal obstruction.

D042783	Endothelial Cells	Highly specialized EPITHELIAL CELLS that line the HEART; BLOOD VESSELS; and lymph vessels, forming the ENDOTHELIUM. They are polygonal in shape and joined together by TIGHT JUNCTIONS. The tight junctions allow for variable permeability to specific macromolecules that are transported across the endothelial layer.
