Autologous blood transfusion for pediatric bone marrow donors.

Nine normal bone marrow donors aged 7-166 months (median 69 months) received autologous red cells which had been removed from their marrow harvest after collection. The median volume of marrow removed from the donors was 18.6 ml/kg which was equivalent to a median blood volume loss of 23.3%. Three infant donors were transfused with autologous red blood cells intraoperatively. These cells had been salvaged from the initial marrow aliquot and were transfused while bone marrow harvesting continued. No donors required homologous blood transfusion. This technique is useful for marrow donors in the pediatric age group when preharvest autologous blood collection is not feasible or available.
