Abstract: The study investigated the therapeutic effect of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) on anterior ischemic optic neuropathy in a rodent model (rAION). rAION was laser-induced in one eye of 63 mice. The fellow (uninjured) eye served as an internal control. Thirty-three...

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for radiation-induced brain necrosis in a patient with primary central nervous system lymphoma.
Abstract: A 45-year-old man who developed brain radionecrosis in the right frontal and left temporoparietal lobes after receiving whole brain radiotherapy and stereotactic radiosurgery for primary central nervous system lymphoma. Since high dose steroid treatment...
Multimodality surgical and hyperbaric management of mandibular osteoradionecrosis.
Abstract: To elucidate long-term outcomes in 65 consecutive patients meeting a uniform definition of mandibular osteoradionecrosis (ORN) treated with multimodality therapy including hyperbaric oxygen (HBO). Pretreatment, post-treatment and long-term follow-up of...
Effect of hyperbaric oxygen on cytochrome C, Bcl-2 and Bax expression after experimental traumatic brain injury in rats.
Abstract: To explore the effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) treatment on the neuronal apoptosis at an earlier stage and the expressions of Cytochrome C (Cyt C), Bcl-2 (B-cell lymphoma-2 family) and Bax (Bcl-2 associated X protein) in rat brain tissues after traumatic...
Bisphosphonate-associated osteonecrosis of mandibular and maxillary bone: an emerging oral complication of supportive cancer therapy.
Abstract: The current report presented 17 patients with cancer with bone metastases and 1 patient with osteopenia who received treatment with bisphosphonates and who subsequently developed osteonecrosis of the mandible and/or maxilla. The authors reviewed information...
Bone marrow oedema and aseptic osteonecrosis in children and adolescents with acute lymphoblastic leukaemia or non-Hodgkin-lymphoma treated with hyperbaric-oxygen-therapy (HBO): an approach to cure? — BME/AON and hyperbaric oxygen therapy as a treatment modality.
Abstract: There is a striking need for additional therapies of bone marrow oedema (BME) and aseptic osteonecrosis (AON) in paediatric oncology patients. Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) therapy used in the treatment of osteoradionecrosis is demonstrated effectiveness. Aim...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for cyclophosphamide induced refractory hemorrhagic cystitis in a child.
Abstract: Bratsas, Stephanides, Spyropoulos, Zachariades, Androulakakis, , , , (2004). Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for cyclophosphamide induced refractory hemorrhagic cystitis in a child. The Journal of urology, 2004...
Successful treatment of rhinocerebral zygomycosis using liposomal nystatin.
Abstract: We describe a case of successful treatment of rhinocerebral mucormycosis in a patient with multiple myeloma. Therapeutic strategies used included liposomal amphotericin, hyperbaric oxygen, GM-CSF and liposomal nystatin. Mileshkin, Slavin, Seymour, McKenzie,...
Evaluation of mutagenic effects of hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in vitro. II. Induction of oxidative DNA damage and mutations in the mouse lymphoma assay.
Abstract: We recently showed that treatment of V79 cells with hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) efficiently induced DNA effects in the comet assay and chromosomal damage in the micronucleus test (MNT), but did not lead to gene mutations at the hprt locus. Using the comet assay...
