Matt, if more recovery is needed, then there is a dirty and dangerous trick.
You can set _allow_resetlogs_corruption=TRUE, 
            _allow_read_only_corruption=TRUE
then do alter database read_only resetlogs;
and immediately do full export from the database. That way, you can salvage the 
data 
or what's left of it. I'm not a member of oracle support, these are undocumented
parameters, you can do it, on your own risk.
