title: Experimental in situ renal hypothermia through the renal vein.
abstract: The authors worked out the technique of in situ renal hypothermia in dogs by direct cannulation of the renal vein or through the internal spermatic vein (ovarian vein). The technique is suggested for preventing the ischaemic impairment of the renal parenchyma in operations requiring compression of the renal artery for more than 20 minutes.
