Spontaneous Left Renal Subcapsular Hematoma and Right Hip Hematoma in a Hemodialysis Patient: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

abstract：BACKGROUND/AIM:Haemodialysis-treated patients are at a high risk of developing cardiovascular disease. Part of this risk may be attributable to the type of the dialysis membrane used. We evaluated whether different dialysis membranes differ with respect to platelet activation. METHODS:In a randomized crossover trial, ...
