Abstract: Nine cases of cervical necrotizing faciitis are presented. Five were odontogenic, three were pharyngeal in origin, and one developed from a soft-tissue spider bite. The bacteriology represented a polyculture of gram-positive, gram-negative, as well as...
Abstract: We report two cases of gas gangrene developed from sacral pressure sores. The first case was clostridial and the second, non-clostridial gas gangrene. Both patients died within two months. The first patient, a 56-year-old woman suffering from palsy of the...
Abstract: Mucormycosis is a highly aggressive fungal infection affecting diabetic, immunocompromised, and, occasionally, healthy patients. This infection is associated with significant mortality. We have reviewed 208 cases in the literature since 1970, 139 of which...
Abstract: In this paper conclusions are drawn from the experiences of subjects presented in the previous studies in this issue. Indications for bone-anchored implants, the percutaneous passage, implant placement in irradiated tissues, and the psychosocial aspects of...
Abstract: This study examined anesthetic development and hemodynamic changes during two techniques of hyperbaric lidocaine administration through 27-gauge intrathecal catheters for continuous spinal anesthesia in 55 elderly patients undergoing transurethral prostatic...
Abstract: Nine cases of cervical necrotizing faciitis are presented. Five were odontogenic, three were pharyngeal in origin, and one developed from a soft-tissue spider bite. The bacteriology represented a polyculture of gram-positive, gram-negative, as well as...
Abstract: Radiation-induced hemorrhagic cystitis continues to cause frustration for patients and urologists alike. Virtually all present modes of treatment tend to yield short-term benefits and entail potentially devastating risk by virtue of the tissue destructive...
Abstract: It is known that hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) decreases total coronary blood flow (TCBF) and cardiac output (CO). To determine whether this is related to an alteration in myocardial contractility, 10 chronically instrumented conscious dogs were studied...
Abstract: Necrotizing fasciitis of the head and neck is a rare infection caused by a mixed bacterial flora with anaerobic predominance. Mortality is due to misdiagnosis which results in late and inadequate treatment. The natural course of this serious infection...
