If it's readable to near the end, you can copy out all other records, zap the table, append from the copy. Or you can physically copy the whole table elsewhere, zap the original, append from the copy.

You got a simpler case, where just the last couple of records are hosed. I've seen much worse, but that was in the previous century.
