Early attempts to treat chronic uremic patients by repeated hemodialysis were generally unsuccessful because of the limited number of blood vessel cannulation sites. It was not until a practical method of permanent cannulation was developed by Quinton, Dillard, and Scribner (3) in 1960 that the problem was largely solved. Since then it...References1.
