title: [Role of autotransfusion of pre-stored blood in benign prostate hyperplasia. Our experience].
abstract: The essence of self-transfusion is the extraction of a patient's own blood for subsequent infusion to the same patient. The practice of this strategy has become particularly important from the moment the likelihood of AIDS virus transmission through transfusion with homologous blood products became known. This article presents our experience in both open and endoscopic BPH surgery over the period ranging from January 93 to December 94, and analyzes the health care and socioeconomic aspects of that experience.
