[Autologous multitransfusion with the Solcotrans system to a patient with ruptured aortic aneurysm and incompatible bank blood].
We describe a patient with a ruptured aortic aneurism requiring immediate surgery where bank blood was incompatible. The Solcotrans autotransfusion system was used and eight units (each 500 ml) were given without complications. Multitransfusion with this system is only sparsely described in the literature.
