Abstract: This report describes the results of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in 10 patients with radiation-induced cystitis. Severe macroscopic hematuria was present in all patients and was resistant to current therapy. Previously 8 patients had been treated for bladder...

Therapeutic gain factors for fractionated radiation treatment of spontaneous murine tumors using fast neutrons, photons plus O2(1) or 3 ATA, or photons plus misonidazole.
Abstract: Therapeutic gain factors (TGFs) have been determined for three spontaneous tumors of the C3H mouse treated by photons + normobaric oxygen (O2(1) ATA), photons + hyperbaric oxygen (O2 3 ATA), photons + misonidazole, or fast neutrons. The tumors were early...
Modulating the oxygen tension in tumours by hypothermia and hyperbaric oxygen.
Abstract: Hypothermia is associated with reduced metabolism of tissues and especially reduced oxygen consumption by tumours. If the blood supply to a hypothermic tumour can be maintained then the hypoxic fraction of cells should be reduced and the radiation response...
Pathogenesis of cerebral air embolism during neodymium-YAG laser photoresection.
Abstract: We describe a case of air embolism complicating neodymium-YAG laser resection of an endobronchial carcinoid tumor. A 27-year-old man experienced an acute neurologic syndrome during laser photoresection which responded to acute hyperbaric therapy. Ross,...
Solitary coin lesion in patients with malignant melanoma: an indication for thoracotomy?
Abstract: In five patients solitary pulmonary lesions were detected radiographically during routine follow up after malignant melanoma. Surgical removal was done in each case under the tentative diagnosis of metastases. Histologically, two lesions turned out as benign...

[Preoperative radiotherapy under hyperbaric oxygenation of locally disseminated cancer of the larynx using a reduced total focal dose].
Abstract: Proceeding from an analysis of immediate and short-term results of combined therapy of laryngeal cancer (stage III) patients, the authors compared the efficacy of preoperative irradiation with relation to an oxygen regimen and the level of total focal doses...
Diffuse spreading Clostridium septicum infection, malignant disease and immune suppression.
Abstract: Nineteen patients have been treated with gas gangrene infection proved on cultures to be caused by Clostridium septicum. Infection occurred after trauma in three patients and occurred spontaneously in 16, including six patients with peritonitis. None of the...
