Autoantibody production after cardiopulmonary bypass with special reference to postpericardiotomy syndrome.

Abstract	A prospective study of children undergoing open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass showed that many of them produced autoantibodies. No association was found between these antibodies, including anticardiolipin antibodies, and the occurrence of postpericardiotomy syndrome.
