“Brian is a phenomenon.
The list of difficulties, complications and disasters, both domestic and medical, which he has lived through during his 40 years on dialysis (interspersed by two transplantations) is formidable.
He has survived with panache. A gentle spirit, sustained by a bottomless well of courage.”

Now semi-retired, Dr. McElhinney graciously granted an interview to the Web site KennethAppellMD.com on April 14, 2009 at his home in Pelham, New York, just north of the Bronx. In it, he discusses Dr. Appell’s revolutionary 1963 invention of the arteriovenous fistula (aka the AV fistula, sometimes erroneously called the Brescia-Cimino shunt).

Willem Kolff, who died on February 11 aged 97, was one of the great creative geniuses of 20th century medicine, responsible for the invention of the kidney dialysis machine and instrumental in the development of the artificial heart and the artificial eye; more remarkable still, his greatest achievements took place in the Netherlands at the height of the German occupation.
