secondary anemia with multiple transfusions

Tempting to use "anemization" or "politransfusion," not used in English.

Typographical error. Polytransfusion, not nearly used as much as "multiple transfusions." "Anemization is also used, but rarely.

neutral Taña Dalglish : Hepatitis A, B, CMV, EBV and HIV infections in premature and term newborn infants following polytransfusion. Not sure why the reason for "multiple"?

The term polytransfusion exists, but it is used infrequently. The prefix "poli" denotes multiplicity.

Doing dome math, looking up both terms in common search engines yahoo and google, there were 82 and 555 links for polytranfusions, and 366,000 and 1,300,000 for multiple transfusions respectively. The term does exist, it just by far not as commonly used.
agree Dr Sue Levy (X) : right Carlos, as a native English speaker and doctor I would not use "polytransfusion"

Chronic red blood cell transfusion support in patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) is often necessary but may cause hemosiderosis and its consequences. The pathophysiologic effects of iron overload relate to increased non-transferrin bound iron generating toxic oxygen free radicals. Studies in patients with MDS and thalassemia major have shown adverse clinical effects of chronic iron overload on cardiac function in patients who underwent polytransfusion.http://med.stanford.edu/profiles/frdActionServlet?choiceId=s...
