Abstract
Hemodialysis, as other extracorporeal circulation treatments, determines activation of the complement system. In this paper molecular mechanism of complement activation by different hemodialysis membranes are reviewed as well as the biological consequences and clinical relevance of the ac tivation.Keywords
