pubmed:abstractText |
The care of patients refusing blood transfusion who require major ablative surgery for malignancy is a continuing challenge. The use of recombinant human erythropoietin is clearly efficacious in patients with renal disease and may be useful in anemic patients who refuse transfusion. Herein, we report a successful extended hemipelvectomy in a Jehovah's Witness using recombinant human erythropoietin support.
