Jennings, a sophomore, carried the ball 21 times for 108 yards and three touchdowns against Colgate...
Muscular and robust as it is, the heart is less tolerant of foreign materials. Washington Surgeon Charles Hufnagel overcame this intolerance in 1952, when he implanted the first artificial aortic valves, made of a Plexiglas ball in a Plexiglas sleeve. The ball has since been replaced by Silastic...
...Dwight E. Harken, 49, operated on Mrs. Richardson to free the valve leaflets. Radical as it was, this surgery gave only temporary relief. Blood still poured back into the heart. What Dr. Harken wanted was an artificial valve. Plastic valves have been developed by Washington's Dr. Charles Hufnagel, but they cannot be placed as close to the heart as surgeons would like, and they click audibly. Dr. Harken went to work with designers and technicians at Davol Rubber Co. in Providence, and they devised what he calls a "caged ball valve...
Another coronary operation, as practiced by Washington's Hufnagel, involves cutting and tying off both mammary arteries-the chest wall can get along without their blood supply-and thus shunt their contents over into the coronaries. Hufnagel hit on this theory by chance when, during different cardiac operations, mammary arteries were cut accidentally, and patients made better recoveries. Hufnagel has been doing this type of operation for years, is still patiently compiling data on his patients' progress before making claims of its effectiveness. Virtually the same operation, though done in execution of a different theory, attracted wide...
