A. A. Chugaev (Tr. I Congress of Khir. Levob. Ukraine, 1925), on the basis of clinical observations, considers renal decapsulation quite indicated in those cases of mercuric chloride poisoning, where anuria has developed. Of the 5 such cases observed by the author, in 2 only this operation helped to save patients. At the same time, decapsulation sometimes gives an effect when it is applied unilaterally. In favor of the beneficial effect of this operation with sublimate nephrosis, the results of experimental studies by M.L. Meerson (ibid.) Also speak.
