title: [A skin button to anchor and lead out catheters or cable links from the skin].
abstract: The manufacture of a skin button for use in chronic animal experiments is described, which is made of silicone rubber and intended to anchor the exit site of intravascular catheters. The button holds the catheter permanently in the skin and can also be used to anchor connections for occlusion cuffs and cables leading to implanted measuring elements.
