Modified R5-R8 Thoracic Sympathectomy for Severe Compensatory Hyperhidrosis
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2021Compensatory hyperhidrosis is the most frequent complication after thoracic sympathectomy applied in the treatment of localized hyperhidrosis. It affects the quality of life in patients, especially in social, professional, and affective spheres. The present study aims to describe the operative technique of bilateral thoracic sympathectomy from R5 to R8

Evaluation of compensatory hyperhidrosis after sympathectomy: The use of an objective method
Annals of Vascular Surgery, 2021To investigate the prevalence of compensatory hyperhidrosis following videothoracic sympathectomy to treat palmoplantar hyperhidrosis and its effect on sweating in the chest, abdomen, back and thighs. Furthermore, to evaluate the concordance between a subjective and an objective method of assessment for compensatory hyperhidrosis.Forty patients with ...

Compensatory hyperhidrosis following thoracic sympathectomy: a biophysical rationale
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 2012A side-effect of endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) is compensatory hyperhidrosis (CH), characterized by excessive sweating from skin areas with intact sudomotor function. The physiological mechanism of CH is unknown, but may represent an augmented local sweat rate from skin areas with uninterrupted sympathetic innervation based on evaporative ...

Fields of Anhidrotic Effects of AbobotulinumtoxinA in Patients With Compensatory Hyperhidrosis
Dermatologic Surgery, 2015Botulinum toxin type A can be used to treat compensatory hyperhidrosis (CHH), which presents areas of different intensity of sweating. More information about the anhidrotic effects is needed.To evaluate the fields of anhidrotic effects (FAEs) resulting from different doses (5 and 10 U), dilution, and depths of injection of abobotulinumtoxinA in ...

Although endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) offers permanent cure of palmar hyperhidrosis (PH), compensatory hyperhidrosis (CH) often complicates the procedure. We analyzed the outcomes of a 2-month interval for unilateral sequential ETS (S-ETS) in comparison with simultaneous bilateral ETS (B-ETS), notably regarding CH and associated plantar ...

Background Patients with primary hyperhidrosis present with sweating in two or more sites in nearly 85% of cases. In this study, we examined whether the number of hyperhidrosis sites is related to the surgery outcomes. Methods One hundred ninety-three hyperhidrosis patients who underwent bilateral videothoracoscopic ...

Incidence and Severity of Compensatory Hyperhidrosis Following Bilateral Sympathectomy
Annals of Vascular SurgeryPrimary hyperhidrosis is a condition caused by an excessive stimulation of sweat glands, leading to a decline in both quality of life and social wellbeing. Thoracic sympathectomy surgery provides a relief of the initial symptoms but poses a risk for developing compensatory hyperhidrosis (CH) in various degrees.The aim of this study was to assess the ...
