Abstract |
A case of inguinogenital gangrene in a 63 years old man is reported. The patient was admitted to the hyperbaric medicine centre in a serious general condition. The use of HOT, antibiotics and selective surgery as treatment of metabolic disturbances effectively improved the patient's general condition, and HOT also proved effective in the treatment of hepatic insufficiency.
