%X Advances in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) and supportive care over the past decade have reduced transplant and relapse-related mortality, leading to a greater number of long-term survivors. However, transplant-related late effects, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD) and metabolic diseases, are becoming significant concerns for this group. This review aims to address several key questions regarding cardiovascular late effects in alloHSCT recipients, including the long-term incidence of CVD-related events, the prevalence of risk factors, screening and management recommendations, and evidence for screening and prevention strategies. A literature search was conducted in PubMed Central using the National Library of Medicine search engine, covering all relevant research from inception to 2023. The initial search identified 751 research records, of which 41 were shortlisted based on specific criteria (≥18 years of age at the time of transplant, allogeneic transplant, and inclusion of more than 30 patients). Our review highlights published evidence confirming the increased CVD risk among alloHSCT recipients. This risk is especially pronounced among individuals who have developed traditional and modifiable risk factors or have been exposed to transplant-specific risk factors. Evidence of the use of traditional cardiac risk factor calculators in the alloHSCT population is limited, in addition, there is emerging evidence that general population calculators potentially underestimate CVD risk given the increased risk of CVD in the allogeneic group as a whole. Studies that develop and validate transplant recipient-specific CVD risk stratification tools appear to be severely lacking and the field's focus needs to be shifted here in the coming years. To improve patient engagement and adherence to CVD risk factor measures, we recommend that a multidisciplinary model involving both specialists and primary care physicians is crucial in ensuring regular follow-up in the community and to potentially improve adherence.
