Management of spontaneous osteoradionecrosis: a case report.
Abstract: Spontaneous osteoradionecrosis of the mandible is an oral complication of radiation therapy. Bone necrosis, unrelated to trauma or infection, is more common when high doses of radiation, including interstitial implants, are delivered to a large bone volume....
[The long term results of hyperbaric oxygen treatment for macular edema with retinal vein occlusion].
Abstract: We retrospectively evaluated the effect of hyperbaric oxygen treatment on seventy-nine eyes of seventy cases with cystoid macular edema secondary to retinal vein occlusion. Twenty-three eyes had central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), and fifty-six eyes had...

Abstract: The clinical and dental records of 26 patients with the clinical diagnosis of postradiation osteonecrosis (PRON) managed with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) were reviewed to determine the efficacy of HBO. 19 patients were male and 7 were female; age at the first...
Spinal anesthesia and subarachnoid phenol denervation using a modified Lemmon technique.
Abstract: Five hundred spinal anesthesias and 63 subarachnoid chemical denervations were performed using a modified Lemmon technique with a new spinal needle invented by the author (NLK). This technique avoids some disadvantages of the routine Tuohy technique and is...
Radiation-related wounds of the chest wall.
Abstract: Irradiation-associated chest wall lesions pose a significant health hazard to the patient. The principles of management include (1) biopsy of any open wounds to rule out the recurrence or persistence of tumor, (2) aggressive debridement of all offending...
Modulation of wound healing response in chronic irradiated tissues.
Abstract: Radiation wounds represent some of the most difficult wounds to treat. Historically, there have been few nonsurgical options. Recent research suggests future potential of a therapeutic role for growth factors. Hyperbaric oxygen is currently widely used, but...
