Pre-transplant hepatic steatosis (fatty liver) is associated with chronic graft-vs-host disease but not mortality.
Allogeneic-HCT (allo-HCT), while potentially curative, can result in significant complications including graft versus host disease (GVHD). Prior studies suggest that metabolic syndrome may be one risk factor for GVHD. We hypothesized that hepatic steatosis on pre-HCT computed tomography (CT) scans m...
