  • Title: [One-stage esophagoplasty without transfusion of donor blood components].
    Author: Domrachev SA, Kurbanov FS, Stefanov SA, Chinikov MA, Tarichko IuV.
    Journal: Khirurgiia (Mosk); 2002; (12):26-9. PubMed ID: 12522923.
    Abstract:
    Six patients aged from 27 to 62 years were operated for subtotal burn strictures, cancer and glandular polyp of a low-thoracic part of the esophagus using a complex program of non-blood surgery. The following methods were used: collection of autoplasma before surgery by plasmapheresis, collection of autologic packet red cells, normovolemic hemodilution during surgery, use of perftoran for oxygen transport and recombinant human erythropoetin to stimulate erythropoiesis and raise preporative level of hemoglobin. Components of donor blood were not used in these patients. There were no complications associated with these methods. Partial failure of esophagol-colonic anastomosis on the neck was seen in 1 patient. The complex program permits one to avoid completely transfusion of donor blood components in esophagol surgery.
