Abstract Introduction We report a case of sinusoidal obstruction syndrome a typical and life-threatening complication after allogeneic stem-cell transplantation successfully treated with defibrotide despite massive multiple organ failure. Case presentation A 64-year-old Caucasian woman underwent allogeneic peripheral blood stemcell transplantation from her human leukocyte antigen-identical sister against aggressive lympho-plasmocytoid immunocytoma. Seven days later the patient developed severe sinusoidal obstruction syndrome according to the modified Seattle criteria. We initiated treatment with defibrotide. Despite early treatment multiple organ failure with kidney failure requiring dialysis and ventilator-dependent lung failure aggravated the clinical course. .
