  • Title: [The effect of autologous blood transfusions on immunity in operated on neurosurgical patients].
    Author: Baliazin VA, Siziakina LP, Bulgakov VV, Daglavi D.
    Journal: Zh Vopr Neirokhir Im N N Burdenko; 1990; (4):23-5. PubMed ID: 2173304.
    Abstract:
    The authors studied the effect of transfusion of autologous and donor blood during neurosurgical operations on the immunity of patients with tumors of the central nervous system in the postoperative period. Autohemotransfusion proved to be more effective in preventing immunodeficient states in the postoperative period, which was documented by increase of the absolute number of T-lymphocytes, stabilization of the content of immunoglobulins of the main classes, and decrease in the number of circulating immune complexes as compared to the initial values. The immunocorrective properties of donor blood yield noticeably to those of autologous blood.
