[A therapeutic approach using dental implants in an irradiated area. The experiences of the René Huguenin Center].
Abstract: A therapeutic trial was conducted with six patients who were in remission after cancer therapy for at least two years. Twenty-four implants were performed in irradiated maxillary bone after local and general paraimplantation preparation using adjuvant...
Hyperbaric oxygenation therapy for cyclophosphamide-induced haemorrhagic cystitis.
Abstract: A 41-year-old female patient undergoing cyclophosphamide therapy for ovarian tumour suffered from haemorrhagic cystitis. Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) (100% of oxygen concentration at 2 atmospheric absolute pressures for 60 minutes a day for 30 days) was...
[Dento-alveolar surgery of the irradiated jaw: is infected osteoradionecrosis a preventable complication?].
Abstract: In spite of preventive procedures before, during and after radiotherapy, profound caries and periodontal breakdown of healthy teeth occur. In the course of dentoalveolar surgery in the region of irradiated bone, the risk of development of an infected...
Flow cytometric measurements of deoxyribonucleic acid ploidy and proliferative activity for evaluating malignant potential of human bladder cancers.
Abstract: Flow cytometric bromodeoxyuridine/deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) bivariate analysis for transitional cell carcinoma of the human bladder tumor was performed to evaluate whether or not this technique can determine the malignant potential of these tumors. In...
[Anaerobic nonclostridial soft-tissue infection].
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...
[Fournier gangrene].
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...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for diabetic wounds.
Abstract: Hyperbaric oxygen can be a useful adjuvant in the management of diabetic foot wounds when coordinated with medical-surgical management of the patient. Elevated tissue oxygen tensions improve leukocyte bacterial killing efficiency and enhance connective...
Fournier’s gangrene.
Abstract: Fournier's gangrene is the result of a highly lethal and rapidly progressive necrotizing infection of the perineal and genital fascia, with gangrene of the overlying skin. The infection is generally polymicrobial and probably synergistic in nature....
