Abstract: The authors report twenty two cases of post-operative gas gangrene. In the series studied mortality was 40.9 p. 100, independent of age and sex. Rapidly progressive forms were the most severe. The delay before effective treatment was prescribed influenced...
Abstract: Four patients developed diffuse cervicofacial cellulitis following an acute circumscribed infection of dental origin. Necrosis of skin, subcutaneous and muscle layers was associated with a severe generalised toxic infective syndrome, producing a clinical...
Abstract: The administration of pure oxygen at higher than atmospheric pressure (hyperbaric oxygen) had been found useful as a primary method of treatment or as adjunctive therapy in a variety of disorders. Hyperbaric oxygen increases the oxygen available to hypoxic...
Abstract: Gas gangrene, also known as clostridial myonecrosis, is a severe and acute infection usually caused by Clostridium septicum, which may contaminate a wound. On rare occasions it is a complication of elective bone surgery, although it is usually found in...

Abstract: The clinical features of gas gangrene and related infection seen in 88 patients over a 10-year period are described. It is suggested that clostridial infection could be simply classified as either 'gas-forming' or 'non-gas-forming'. The gas-forming group...
