Hyperbaric oxygen therapy in deep sternal wound infection after heart transplantation.

T Petzold1, P R Feindt, U M Carl, E Gams.   

Abstract

The results of orthotopic heart transplantation (OHTx) are still burdened with considerable early mortality due to graft rejection or infection. Sternum osteomyelitis is an infrequent postoperative complication. We report a case of deep sternal wound infection (2 months after OHTx) that was treated with hyperbaric oxygen therapy in addition to local surgical treatment.
