[Characterization of peripheral erythron component in patients with localized thermal burns].
Cytospectrophotometry and electron microscopy of peripheral blood erythrocytes in patients with local surface thermal burns and healthy volunteers showed a notable decrease in the levels of sulfhydryl groups and lipoproteins, decreased number of biconcave discocytes, and increased number of transitional, prehemolytical, and degenerative forms of red blood cells. These changes were more pronounced during the early posttraumatic period and persisted for 2 months after burns were inflicted. Deep structural metabolic and morphological disorganization of the erythron peripheral component is a factor of risk of postburn complications.
