Resection and immediate microvascular reconstruction in the management of osteoradionecrosis of the mandible.
Abstract: Management of osteoradionecrosis (ORN) remains a difficult and challenging problem. The traditional approach using debridement, antibiotics, and occasionally hyperbaric oxygen is usually successful in treating minimal ORN. However, when bone and soft-tissue...
Necrotizing fasciitis: a diagnostic challenge.
Abstract: Group A streptococci are responsible for much of the morbidity associated with skin infections. Necrotizing fasciitis, the most extreme form of these infections, may be life-threatening. Consequently, physicians need to know how to diagnose and effectively...
Dental implants following radical oral cancer surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy.
Abstract: Following radical oral cancer surgery and postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy with a total dose of 60 Gy, 71 IMZ and 150 Brånemark implants were placed in the mandibles and 28 Brånemark implants were placed in the maxillas of 60 patients between 1985 and...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for wound complications after surgery in the irradiated head and neck: a review of the literature and a report of 15 consecutive patients.
Abstract: Radiotherapy, which is often used for cancer in the head and neck, leads to damage of tissue cells and vasculature. Surgery in such tissues has an increased complication rate, because wound healing requires angiogenesis and fibroplasia as well as white blood...
Implant rehabilitation of irradiated jaws: a preliminary report.
Abstract: Ten patients (3 maxilla, 7 mandible), who had been treated for a head and neck malignancy by undergoing radiotherapy, had 42 implants (10 maxillary, 32 mandibular) placed into the irradiated sites and either an overdenture or a fixed prosthesis fabricated....
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for diabetic foot ulcers.
Abstract: Chantelau, , , , , , , , (1997). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for diabetic foot ulcers. Diabetes care, 1997 Jul;20(7):1207-8. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9203467
Cardiac performance during unilateral lumbar spinal block after crystalloid preload.
Abstract: The haemodynamic effects of crystalloid preload were evaluated in a randomised blind study in 20 ASA status I-II, 50-80 yr-old patients, undergoing unilateral spinal anaesthesia for leg surgery produced with low doses of hyperbaric bupivacaine. Baseline...
Three dimensional image reconstruction of neuroanatomical structures: methods for isolation of the cortex, ventricular system, hippocampus, and fornix.
Abstract: Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging allows volumetric quantification of a variety of neuroanatomical structures using two dimensional (2D) images as well as three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of the brain and any of its constituent parts. Three-dimensional...
