OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical results in the anterior stabile operation of spinal fracture using red blood salvage. METHODS: Nineteen cases with spinal fracture were performed the anterior decompress operation. Blood cell salvage were used during operation. Other 20 cases were also reviewed as control group, who were received the same operation without blood cell salvage. RESULTS: In the 19 cases, average volume of autologous transfusion was 536 ml. Only two cases had homologous transfusion requirements. In the control group, all cases needed homologous transfusion (averaged 947 ml). CONCLUSION: In the anterior decompress operation, the intraoperative blood salvage is highly effective in reducing transfusion and also improves the security of operation
