Adjunctive Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy promotes successful healing in patients with refractory Crohn’s disease.
To investigate de adjunctive effect of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy in a group of patients with refractory Crohn’s disease. A total of 29 subjects with refractory Crohn’s disease were submitted to daily sessions of Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy, in a 2800 Sechrist Monoplace Hyperbaric Chamber (Sechrist, USA) pressurized to 2.4 ATA. Each session lasted 2 hours. The endpoint was closure of enterocutaneous fistulas and complete healing of Pyoderma Gangrenosum and perineal Crohn’s disease. A total of 829 HBOT sessions were performed and no complications were noted. Overall success rate was 76% (22 cases). Pyoderma Gangrenosum and enterocutaneous fistulas had the highest successful healing rates (100% and 91%, respectively).
Treatment of pediatric cerebral radiation necrosis: a systematic review.
Abstract: Cerebral radiation necrosis (CRN) is a toxicity of radiation therapy that can result in significant, potentially life-threatening neurologic deficits. Treatment for CRN has included surgical resection, corticosteroids, hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT), and...
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy for a refractory skin ulcer after radical mastectomy and radiation therapy: a case report.
Abstract: Radiation therapy is performed as an adjuvant therapy when indicated following surgical resection of malignant tumors. However, radiation exposure induces acute or chronic dermatitis, depending on the radiation dose, interval, tissue volume, or irradiated...

Intralesional application of epidermal growth factor in limb-threatening ischemic diabetic foot ulcers.
Abstract: The intralesional injection of recombinant human epidermal growth factor (EGF-IL), a new therapy, has been claimed to prevent major amputations in advanced diabetic foot lesions. In this study, the efficacy of EGF-IL on advanced diabetic foot ulcers (DFU)...
