ABSTRACT
The vascular surgeon's best resource for blood transfusion is the patient's own blood. It is readily available for recycling, already precisely typed and crossmatched, and without the risk of transfusion-related diseases such as hepatitis and AIDS. The relative ease, safety, and cost-effectiveness of autologous blood transfusions, intraoperative autotransfusions, and postoperative autotransfusions has been shown in our hospital experience with 320 cases and in the literature. We predict that autologous donor blood and autotransfusion will soon be widely accepted and utilized as the best and safest method of blood replacement.
