Abstract
Drenching the tissues with oxygen by means of inhalation of pure oxygen in a hyperpressure
tank under a pressure of 3 atmospheres (absolute) was introduced as an aid in the
treatment of anaerobic infections. Four patients (Cullen ulcer and clostridial myositis)
were treated successfully in this manner.
