Bilateral total knee and total hip replacement were performed on a 44-year-old woman with severe unremitting rheumatoid arthritis. The patient, a Jehovah's Witness had refused transfusion utilizing blood, blood byproducts, and blood substitutes. She had also refused the use of autotransfusion, even in the event of an emergency. The authors describe successful major joint replacement carried out on four separate occasions without transfusion. The only hematologic therapy was the preoperative and postoperative administration of iron dextran.
对一名患有严重顽固性类风湿性关节炎的44岁女性实施了双侧全膝关节置换术和全髋关节置换术。该患者是一名耶和华见证人,拒绝输注血液、血液制品和血液替代品。她还拒绝使用自体输血,即使在紧急情况下也是如此。作者描述了在四次单独的手术中成功进行了大关节置换且未输血的情况。唯一的血液学治疗方法是术前和术后给予右旋糖酐铁。
