[Differential diagnosis of sanguineous cerebrospinal fluid].
The author studied the problem of differential diagnosis in cases with blood presence in the cerebrospinal fluid. Among 151 fluid samples obtained from 96 patients he found pathological admixture of blood in 117 samples and blood admixture as artifact in 34 samples. Besides the generally accepted differentiating criteria the author draws attention to differences in the process of phagocytosis, attraction of erythrocytes by mononuclear cells and in the transformation and morphology of macrophages. The author puts forward the hypothesis of immunological mechanisms causing attraction of erythrocytes.
