[Intrathecal alcohol neurolysis of the lower sacral roots in inoperable rectal cancer].
Abstract: Intrathecal neurolytic blocks are performed with either 95% alcohol or with 6-8% phenol in glycerin. Alcohol is hypobaric and phenol hyperbaric compared with the cerebrospinal fluid; positioning of the patient must therefore be done accordingly. This is a...
[Hyperbaric oxygenation in burns].
Abstract: Standardised third degree burn injuries were produced in guinea pigs and a standardized pseudomonas aeruginosa infection model was used. Therapy with oxygen under high pressure (OHP) was initiated for not experimentally infected burn wounds and for wounds...
