[Use of plasmapheresis in surgical hematology]

Results of 270 plasmacytophereses performed in 64 patients with different forms of hemoblastoses are presented. Indications for using the method are determined. It is shown that plasmacytopheresis included in the complex therapy of hemoblastoses increases the incidence of remissions, shortens the time of treatment, allows to increase single doses and decrease general dose of the cytostatic preparations used.
