Necrotizing Fasciitis Successfully Treated with Extracorporeal Blood Oxygenation and Ozonization (EBOO)

Abstract

A case of necrotizing fasciitis in a dialysis patient is described. Since traditional therapies were unsuccessful, extracorporeal blood oxygenation and ozonation (EBOO) was tried. This technique is no longer in the experimental stage and is used routinely in our hospital. Patient condition improved radically after EBOO.
