Over the ten past years, we performed 336 apheresis among 51 children who were 19 months to 15 years old (10 to 30 kg body weight). 3 types of apheresis were carried out. 14 red blood cell exchange, 293 plasma exchanges and 29 peripheral blood stem cell collections (CSP). 5 different types of continuous or discontinuous flow machines have been used. Technical adaptations depending on patient blood volume, hematocrit, type of machine used and apheresis performed permitted us to obtain a very good tolerance and acceptability. According us, the apheresis should be used each time this treatment is needed in the child, because of the very low frequency of side effects.
