[Extracorporeal fixation of liver slices onto the system of "artificial kidney" apparatus].
On 36 experimental dogs a new dialyser "liver-kidney" was tested, in which along with the process of dialysis some functions of the liver were carried out on account of placing in the apparatus homologous liver slices 2-3 mm thick. The data of biochemical studies of animals blood have evidenced satisfactory results. The dialyser with heteroliver slices assisted in two patients with hepato-renal failure. One of them made a good recovery and was discharged from the clinic, a favourable immediate result was obtained in the second patient.
