К. А. Markova. Two cases of edema without a bullet. Children's Medicine, 1901

Abstract

Bringing acute and chronic diseases in the course of or in the course of which non-pulmonary edema develops and many different authors explaining its occurrence, the author sets out the histories of the disease of two of his patients, who had disease-free dropsy. The authors' opinion about the origin of non-albuminuric edema is reduced to 3 provisions:

3) as a symptom of acute kidney damage.
