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...
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygenation is effective in augmenting the delivery of oxygen to tissue, but also causes oxidative stress. As part of our focus on improving peripheral nerve salvage from ischemic fiber degeneration, we evaluated whether hyperbaric oxygenation...
Abstract: A minority of divers with neurological decompression illness (DCI) fail to improve with recompression treatment. This is particularly seen in cases where features of severe spinal cord injury develop soon after surfacing. Haemorrhage into the spinal cord is...
Abstract: Over the period 1985 through 1994, observations are conducted on forty-eight patients, 35 men and 13 women, with age ranging from 11 to 56 years, presenting anaerobic non-spore-forming infection of the soft tissues (necrotizing fasciitis (3), postinjection...

Abstract: Fournier's gangrene is a relatively rare, mixed aerobic and anaerobic soft tissue infection in the perineoscrotal area. Although it is convenient to give it a separate name, it is really either necrotizing fasciitis or nonclostridial myonecrosis of the...
