Abstract: Oxygen inhalation was early advocated as a treatment for migraine headache. It has been theorized that the efficacy of raising blood oxygen levels in vascular headache is mediated by vasoconstriction and metabolic effects. Hyperbaric oxygen can provide a...
Abstract: To determine whether hyperbaric oxygen (HBO), dapsone, or cyproheptadine decreases the severity of skin lesions resulting from experimental Loxosceles envenomation. Randomized, blinded, controlled study. Animal care facility. We used New Zealand white...
Abstract: Merkel cell carcinoma is a relatively rare neuroendocrine carcinoma of the skin. It arises in the head and neck region in approximately 50% of cases. Its aggressive behavior predisposes patients to local-regional recurrence and distant metastases after...
Abstract: Five patients treated with radiotherapy and surgery for oral malignant tumors had a total of 20 Brånemark implants placed in irradiated bone of the mandible. The radiotherapy dose varied between 25 and 64 Gy (mean 40.3 Gy) with a biologically effective dose...
Abstract: Cervical necrotizing fasciitis is a devastating polymicrobial soft tissue infection characterized by gas formation and extensive necrosis of subcutaneous fat and fascia with extension to skin and muscle. Involvement of the head and neck is rare and is...
Abstract: We present the case history of a white male patient who initially presented in the Emergency Department with a peritonsillar abscess and subsequently returned several days later with necrotizing cervical fasciitis with intrathoracic extension. The successful...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen therapy has significantly improved the management of necrotizing fasciitis of the extremities and trunk. Its role in cervical necrotizing fasciitis has not been fully evaluated. Historically, necrotizing fasciitis has been associated with...
Abstract: Cervical necrotizing fasciitis is a devastating polymicrobial soft tissue infection characterized by gas formation and extensive necrosis of subcutaneous fat and fascia with extension to skin and muscle. Involvement of the head and neck is rare and is...
Abstract: It has been reported that hyperbaric oxygen treatment improves visual function in patients with chronic macular edema associated with retinal vein occlusion. This study was designed to investigate relationship between visual prognosis and characteristics of...
