Hepatic veno-occlusive disease (VOD) is a frequent and severe complication after bone marrow transplantation (BMT), We previously have described plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) as a possible marker of VOD, To confirm the significance of this finding, we now determined PAI 1 levels in 31 of 186 consecutive patients undergoing BMT who developed hyperbilirubinemia greater than 3 mg/dL for various reasons, Diagnoses were made by clinical criteria and confirmed by biopsy in 23 of 31 patients, They included VOD (n = 7), acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) of the liver (n = 7), and other hepatic injury (n = 17). PAI-1 (mean +/- SD) was significantly (P
