Abstract:Purpose
Acute normovolemic hemodilution (ANH) is a useful intraoperative blood conservation technique. However, impact on long-term outcomes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unclear. We investigated the impact of ANH on long-term outcomes of PDAC patients undergoing radical surgery.
Methods
We collected a dataset from 155 resectable PDAC. Patients were categorized according to whether or not they had received intraoperative allogeneic blood transfusion (ABT) or ANH. Postoperative complication… Show more
