"But the new procedure will replace the reservoir and will, we believe, prevent the kidneys from becoming infected, a result that frequently caused untimely deaths after the older method of radical surgery and the insertion of permanent catheters [artificial drainage tubes] into the kidneys. And if, for example, we can eradicate...
