Abstract: Patient undergoing neurosurgery of intracranial and major spine surgery often require perioperative allogenic blood transfusion to avoid anaemia and for better patient outcome from surgical stress as well as from anaesthesia. However some complication like transfusion reaction and infection associated with allogenic blood transfusion leads to concept of autologous blood transfusion. We studied effect of autologous blood transfusion in major elective neurosurgery
