Accidental cerebral venous gas embolism in a young patient with congenital heart disease.
Abstract: This article describes an 11-year-old girl with a diagnosis of Ebstein's anomaly. Glenn and Fontan surgeries were performed successfully. She had a generalized tonic-clonic seizure after peripheral intravenous infusion under pressure. A computed tomography...
Liposome encapsulation reduces cantharidin toxicity.
Abstract: Several reports have demonstrated that cantharidin is a strong anticancer compound in vitro; however, its in vivo usefulness is often limited due to its high systemic toxicity. In this study, we encapsulated cantharidin into pegylated liposomes and studied...
Vacuum-assisted closure for the treatment of Fournier’s gangrene.
Abstract: Fournier's gangrene (FG) is a very aggressive necrotizing fasciitis involving subcutaneous fat and skin of scrotal and perineal regions. Vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) is a well-known method used to treat complex wounds. The authors for the first time enhance...
Fournier’s gangrene: management at a regional burn center.
Abstract: Fournier's gangrene (FG) describes necrotizing infections of the perineum in both sexes. Controversies in treatment of FG include the roles of orchiectomy, urinary and/or fecal diversion, and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Because burn centers often treat these...
Early radical surgery and antimicrobial therapy with hyperbaric oxygen in necrotizing fasciitis.
Abstract: Anwar, Haque, Rahman, Morris, McDermott, , , , (2008). Early radical surgery and antimicrobial therapy with hyperbaric oxygen in necrotizing fasciitis. Plastic and reconstructive surgery, 2008...
Dental extractions and radiotherapy in head and neck oncology: review of the literature.
Abstract: Management of irradiated patients with cancer in the head and neck region represents a challenge for multidisciplinary teams. Radiotherapy promotes cellular and vascular decrease that results in a low response rate in the healing. Consequently, surgical...
Mechanism of ischemic tolerance induced by hyperbaric oxygen preconditioning involves upregulation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1alpha and erythropoietin in rats.
Abstract: We studied the effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) preconditioning on the molecular mechanisms of neuroprotection in a rat focal cerebral ischemic model. Seventy-two male Sprague-Dawley rats were pretreated with HBO (100% O(2), 2 atmospheres absolute, 1 h once...
Evaluation of hardware-related complications in vascularized bone grafts with locking mandibular reconstruction plate fixation.
Abstract: To identify the incidence of hardware and bone-healing complications in patients who underwent locking mandibular reconstruction plate (LMRP) fixation of vascularized bone grafts for reconstruction of segmental mandibular defects. Case series. Academic...
