Abstract
Re cultured in each case. Two patients required skin graft closure of the debrided wounds, with the remaining wounds closed by contracture and epithelialization. A diverting sigmoid colostomy to facilitate wound care was performed on one patient who had complete dissolution of all anal sphincters. The role of hyperbaric oxygen therapy in four patients was of uncertain value. This study was completed at the George Washington University Hospital, Department of Surgery.
