You could try IBDBRepair:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/ibdbrepair

It attempts to re-create your database, pumping the data from the
corrupt DB to a new fresh DB (created from metadata of the existing db).
This should be able to recover all data that is recoverable.

It's a long process though, depending on the database structure.
