Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) Research for Cancer.
Abstract: To present a case of spinal anesthesia in a patient suffering from carcinoid syndrome undergoing an inguinal hernia repair. In the past, regional anesthesia was considered unacceptable in these patients because of the possibility of intraoperative...
Abstract: Radiotherapy of head and neck cancer is efficient but may have severe late effects. Although unfrequent, mandibular radionecrosis is the most dreadful. A cascade of events leads from hyposialia to bone destruction through extensive caries and trauma linked...
Abstract: This was a case of spinal subdural granuloma of Candida albicans. A high cerebrospinal fluid protein level without pleocytosis (albuminocytologic dissociation) was observed. This case proved difficult to diagnose and treat. To clarify the important issues in...
Abstract: Measurement of oxygen pressure (pO2) in tumor tissue is important, because pO2 is a major factor for radiosensitivity in malignant glioma treatment. We attempted to elucidate the changes in pO2 level in glioblastoma tissue of patients under various...
Abstract: Dental implants offer one way to replace missing teeth and associated tissues. Patients who have undergone radiotherapy and those that have also undergone surgery for cancer may benefit particularly from reconstruction with implants. Hyperbaric oxygen...
Abstract: Bernbeck, Krauth, Scherer, Engelbrecht, Göbel, , , , (2002). Aseptic osteonecrosis in a child with nephroblastoma healed by hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Medical and pediatric oncology, 2002 Jul;39(1):47-8. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/12116080
Abstract: Analysis of the feasibility and effect of hyperbaric oxygen treatment (HBO) on cognitive functioning in patients with cognitive disorders after irradiation of the brain. Seven patients with cognitive impairment after brain irradiation, with an interval of at...
Abstract: The mandible is among the bones most frequently affected by irradiation. The most severe post-radiation injury of the mandible is osteoradionecrosis (ORN). Conflicting data have been reported on the incidence of this complication, its aetiology and...
Abstract: To record changes in refraction and refractive parameters associated with a standard hyperbaric oxygen treatment protocol consisting of a 95 min session at > 95% oxygen at 2.5 atmospheres (ATA) given daily Monday to Friday, to a total of 30 sessions....
