[Reinfusion of blood in combined trauma of hollow abdominal organs]

The authors performed 122 blood reinfusions in patients with trauma to the chest and abdomen, in 25 of them with associated injury to the hollow abdominal organs. The mean volume of blood loss was 2225 ml, that of reinfusion--1092 ml. Nine patients died, 6 developed complications. The authors substantiate the tactics of transfusion therapy in massive hemoperitoneum in patients with associated trauma to the hollow abdominal organs.
