After their publication, there appeared somewhat less enthusiastic reports of the treatment of chronic renal failure by this technique (2-4). Since its inception, however, a number of technical and conceptual improvements have enhanced the over-all success (5-8), and more recently a number of centers have been able to achieve results similar to those obtained in Seattle (9-10). Scribner's present results include three patients who have been successfully maintained for 4 years. The...References1.
