Abstract: The authors studied 33 maculopathies in 54 patients affected by typic retinitis pigmentosa: atrophic macular degeneration 31 cases (49%); cystoïd macular oedema: 1 case (3%) and macular retraction syndrome: 1 case (3%). These results are confronted with...
Abstract: Traumatic, clostridial myonecrosis is a rare and serious complication of wounds. Nontraumatic, metastatic, clostridial myonecrosis may be caused by carcinoma of the large intestine. Nontraumatic myonecrosis becomes evident with localized pain, generalized...
Abstract: Injury from explosion may be due to the direct cussive effect of the blast wave (primary), being struck by material propelled by the blast (secondary), to whole-body displacement and impact (tertiary), or to miscellaneous effects from burns, toxic acids, and...
Abstract: One hundred and one patients were randomly allocated to have their peripheral vascular surgery performed under general anaesthesia (51 patients) or spinal anaesthesia (50 patients). Intraoperative haemodynamic changes were markedly different between the two...

Abstract: It is proposed that hyperbaric oxygen fails in the clinical situation due to a high proportion (greater than 33%) of hypoxic cells in human tumours. The means of overcoming this problem are reviewed. Additional to hyperbaric oxygenation, moderate hypothermia...
Abstract: Anemia may often become a problem in the treatment of the cancer patient. There are insufficient clinical data to assess the overall importance of anemia in radiotherapy, but there is clear evidence that uncorrected anemia is detrimental to local tumor...

Abstract: Physicians are aware of the association between massively contaminated wounds and clostridial myonecrosis, or gas gangrene. A far less common but equally devastating presentation is that of nontraumatic or spontaneous gas gangrene. The most frequently...
