[Blood transfusion in surgery. Immunological principles].
The goals and risks of blood transfusions are listed up. Indications for blood transfusions are given. Immunological reactions between donor and recipient are discussed. On the basis of our own results of antibody-screening the risk of sensitisation is calculated. Two short case-reports demonstrate organizational and serological problems in the treatment of antibody-carriers.
