title: [Indications and contraindications for plasma substitutes in surgery].
abstract: The indication for the infusion of plasma substitutes has been considerably limited as the result of a series of grave incidents. Prior to each application, differential-therapeutic deliberations must decide on the choice of plasma substitute bringing about the desired success in accordance with its physico-chemical characteristics and clinical values. The type and severity of a probable anaphylactoid incident and its therapy should also be considered.
