  • Title: Chronic renal disease. Some sociological aspects of dialysis and transplantation.
    Author: Rubini ME, Goldman R.
    Journal: Calif Med; 1968 Feb; 108(2):90-5. PubMed ID: 4867565.
    Abstract:
    Each year in California more than two thousand persons die of renal disease. Chronic uremia formerly was considered to have a hopeless prognosis. Recently the development of two procedures, chronic maintenance hemodialysis and renal homotransplantation, has offered substantial hope for the salvage of patients who otherwise would die of uremia.
