[Choice of the optimal variant of blood loss replacement during reconstructive surgery of the major vessels with the object of preventing postoperative anemia].

175 patients after reconstructive surgery on major vessels have been examined. Blood loss during surgery was compensated by crystalloid and colloid solutions or their combination with donor blood, autoblood, UV-irradiated autoblood. In the postoperative period hematological parameters were assessed, the volume of the donor blood transfused was determined and the effect of UV-irradiation on the morphology and size of autoerythrocytes was studied. The optimal variant of blood loss compensation was the combination of crystalloid solutions with UV-irradiated autoblood.
