[A clinico-experimental study of lymphogenous detoxification in acute renal and kidney insufficiency]

Lymphogenous methods for detoxification were employed in 23 patients with acute concurrent renal and hepatic failure of various etiology. Pronounced changes in the composition of lymph and moderate to severe hyperhydration are indications for combined application of lymphosorption (LS) and lymphodialysis (LD). The combined use of LS and LD makes it possible to reduce the number of required hemodialyses three times as much as that of hemodialysis alone and to make the time of a hemodialysis shorter by 1.5-2 hours.
