Summary

The study included 152 surgical cases in which autologous frozen, allogeneic frozen, and/or allogeneic non-frozen blood were used. Of them, there were 69 cases in which autologous blood only (group 1) was used; 12 cases with autologous and allogeneic frozen blood (group 2); 46 cases with autologous and allogeneic frozen plus allogeneic non-frozen blood (group 3); and 25 cases with allogeneic frozen plus allogeneic non-frozen blood (group 4). No hepatitis developed in groups 1 (0%) and 2 (0%), but there was positive hepatitis in group 3 (4.3%) and 4 (8.0%). In 357 cases of those who underwent surgery with allogeneic non-frozen whole blood during the same period, the incidence rate of hepatitis was 13.7%.
