A Case Study of Wet Gangrene

Report from Hottentots Holland Hospital
To whom it may concern,

This is to confirm that I treated the patient (presented here,  in the photographs)
following treatment at Paarl Hospital where an amputation was considered of her
right foot.

On initial examination, her foot was extremely septic and we proceeded with
appropriate treatment.  The dorsum of the foot was clean, but she had a deep
infection of the planter area of her foot.  A large amount of neurotic tissue was exited.

Following a few days of Chemspunge® dressings,  it was felt that the foot was clean
enough for a skin graft.

A skin graft was performed on the dorsum of the foot and she was discharged a few
days later with the foot vitally healed.

Yours sincerely,
Dr. Vermeulen

Record report:
Patient Mrs F, aged 58 on 6 May 94 was in an advance stage with wet gangrenous on her right foot with extremely bad odours.
Her physical condition was very neglected.
Paarl hospital advised amputation,  which she refused.
Dr Berning started treatment Eusol soaks, elevolian,  etc and referred her to Steriworld for Chemspunge® therapy .
Dr Berning saw patient again on 25 May 94 and reported "There was a marked improvement".
Chemspunge® removed all the necrotic tissue and most of the slough.
One month's treatment with Chemspunge® healed her foot to such an extent that Dr Vermeulen could perform a flap transplant, with positive results
