Bronchospasm and Kidney Injury Associated With Salvaged Blood Reinfusion During Pediatric Neurosurgical Procedure: A Case Report.

Abstract Adverse events associated with salvaged blood reinfusion are common, but bronchospasm has been rarely reported, especially in pediatrics. We report the case of a child undergoing epileptogenic focus resection, who experienced bronchospasm and kidney injury associated with reinfusion of salvaged blood, presumably related to excessive free hemoglobin.
