Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is an adjuvant novel non-invasive treatment technique in the field of plastic surgery for treating different wounds. This utilizes 100% at pressures above atmospheric pressure. In our study, we are discussing about eight cases surgery. HBOT plays important role pathological conditions. It involves a hundred percent breathing closed chamber certain period time. m...

High-pressure injection injury (HPII) is a rare severe hand trauma associated with high rates of complications and amputations of the peripheral parts of the fingers and permanent hand dysfunction. Early detection and treatment are crucial as any delay may result in a considerable functional deficit of the affected limb or amputation. The rate of amputation following HPII is 48%. This case repo...

Cogan's syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder connecting ophthalmologic and audiovestibular signs. A case of a young patient is reported, describing the evolution of her illness, and diagnostic and therapeutic measures performed. Response to treatment, including glucocorticoid therapy and hyperbaric oxygenation, is discussed. A synoptic review of knowledge of this rare disorder is incorporated.

Hyperbaric oxygenation therapy (HBOT) has been gaining an increasing recognition as a versatile therapeutic approach. This article reviews the application of hyperbaric oxygenation as a method for resuscitation and therapy of elderly patients with cerebral and cardio-respiratory dysfunction, in acute as compared to chronic impairments. The vital role of proper dosage of HBO therapy to ensure bo...

Oxygenation is the most critical function of blood flow and a sudden reduction in oxygen availability is an inevitable consequence of severe ischemia. The resulting cascade of events may result in the failure of membrane integrity of some cells and necrosis, but in the surrounding zone of tissue, less affected by hypoxia, cells survive to form the ischemic penumbra. The timing of these events i...
