Abstract: Meningococcal septic shock (MSS) has high mortality and morbidity rates. In addition to the traditional prompt antibiotics and respiratory and circulatory support, new treatment strategies have been proposed. Immunotherapy, such as antiserum to Escherichia...
Abstract: A 63-year-old woman with diabetes mellitus type 2 and an ulcer on the foot developed gas gangrene and was treated with antibiotics and surgical excision. She died before she could be treated with hyperbaric oxygen. van der Meer, , , , , , , , (2000)....
Abstract: Radiation therapy is commonly applied as a primary or adjuvant therapy for malignancies. One of the major complications following radiation therapy is the necrosis of the otherwise normal surrounding soft tissues and/or bone. Post-radiation myelopathy rarely...

Abstract: For more than thirty years hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO) has been an important and ultimate therapeutic tool in special indications. Hyperbaric oxygen improves tissue oxygenation, stimulates important mechanisms in wound healing and exerts beneficial...
Abstract: Although hypoxia is considered a major cause of failure of radiotherapy, the mechanisms of tumor hypoxia are unclear, and effective ways for its correction or targeting are missing. Tumoral vasculature is the vehicle for the hemoglobin to reach the tumoral...
Abstract: Osteoradionecrosis (ORN) of the mandible can arise following therapeutic radiotherapy for head and neck cancer. The incidence is quoted as 10-15%. Conservative and surgical therapies used for ORN have included vascularized osteocutaneous flap transfers,...
