    Transfusion therapy has helped reduce mortality and improve the quality of life for many cancer patients. The objective of this study was to determine the frequency of transfused blood components in patients with neoplastic diseases registered in the Blood Bank service at the Oncosalud Clinic from June 2016 to June 2018. We conducted a retrospective, descriptive, cross-sectional study. We included patients over 18 years old, with preneoplastic alterations, neoplastic diseases, or with recurrences and treatment control, who had received a full, complication-free transfusion. We included 3,022 transfusion requests, of which 1,525 (50.5%) were women with an average age of 59.8±17.5 years, statistically not significant compared to men (65.3±14.1 years) (p=0.210). Both sexes predominantly required red blood cell concentrate (RBC) at 67.9%, followed by platelets (PLT) at 19.9%. The age group from 56 to 70 years demanded the highest amount of blood products (40.2%). In both periods, hematological neoplasms (49.1%) required the highest number of transfusions, followed by gynecological (16.3%) and gastrointestinal (15.1%) neoplasms. This study demonstrated a high frequency of transfused blood components (red blood cell concentrate and platelets), primarily in hematological neoplasms.
