Klin Wochenschr. 1979 Nov 2;57(21):1153-61. Related Articles, Links Hemodilution (HD) in patients with ischemic skin ulcers. Rieger H, Kohler M, Schoop W, Schmid-Schonbein H, Roth FJ, Leyhe A. In 25 patients with arterial occlusive disease in the clinical stage IV according to Fontaine a hemodilution down to an average hematocrit value of 0.31 +/- 0.02 was performed. Eighteen patients had peripheral ulcers of the lower limbs and 3 patients had ulcers of the upper ones. Four patients had tissular lesions both at the level of the feet and toes and hand and fingers. The average age of the patients was 43. Hemodilution was achieved by repeated withdrawals of approx. 500 ml blood, followed by reinfusion of the autologous plasma associated with infusion of substitutive solutions of low-molecular weight dextran to avoid hypovolemia. In all patients with peripheral ulcers of the upper limbs, with no exception, a good to a very good clinical effect was obtained ranging from extended to complete healing. The healing tendency of lesions in the feet and toe region was on the whole less marked and depended basically on the total number of vascular impediments found in one patient. The rheological and hemodynamic mechanism of the therapeutic effect of hemodilution, the preliminary criteria for indicating this therapy and its observed complications are discussed.
