Complement conversion and leukocyte kinetics in open heart surgery

The Japanese Journal of Surgery, 1988
Complement conversions and a pulmonary leukocyte sequestration were observed during cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in all of twenty patients who received open heart surgery. A systemic neutropenia was initially observed in the early phase of CPB, and it subsequently turned into a systemic neutrocytosis during the late phase of it. A significant leukocyte
