I Had A Kidney Removed And An Artery Was Nicked

I had a kidney removed and an artery was nicked requiring 12units of blood and 4 plasma. The problem is what happens if I should need a transfusion? I have a mixture of blood types making it impossible to have a transfusion. Is there such a thing as artificial blood?
