Compensatory sweating (CS) is a frequent health concern following treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis using video-assisted thoracoscopic sympathectomy (VATS) and can reduce level of patient satisfaction.A retrospective cohort study including consecutive patients who underwent VATS for primary palmar hyperhidrosis (HH) over a 5-year period was conducted ...

Effect of lowering or restricting sympathectomy levels on compensatory sweating
Clinical Autonomic Research, 2014There is controversy on whether lowering or restricting the level of sympathectomy can reduce compensatory sweating (CS). This study compared the results from sympathectomies performed to treat severe palmar hyperhidrosis using two distinct levels of T2-4 and T3-4.One hundred and sixteen patients with primary palmar hyperhidrosis were randomly ...

Long-Term Outcomes and Course of Compensatory Sweating after Endoscopic Sympathicotomy
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 2021Abstract Background Endoscopic thoracic sympathicotomy is an effective approach to the treatment of idiopathic localized hyperhidrosis, and compensatory sweating is the main reason for patient dissatisfaction. Our study discusses both the long-term outcomes of sympathicotomy and the course of compensatory sweating.

Intraoperative prediction of compensatory sweating for thoracic sympathectomy
The Japanese Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2005Postoperative compensatory sweating (PCS) is an important problem impacting on quality of life for patients after endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS). The present study investigated whether intraoperative palmar temperature and blood flow are useful for assessing PCS after ETS.Retrospectively, results were evaluated for ETS in 27 consecutive ...

Management of Compensatory Sweating After Sympathetic Surgery
Thoracic Surgery Clinics, 2016Compensatory hyperhidrosis (HH) is the most common and feared side effect of thoracic sympathectomy, because patients with severe forms have their quality of life greatly impaired. The most well-known factors associated with compensatory HH are extension of manipulation of the sympathetic chain, level of sympathetic denervation, and body mass index ...

AbstractBackgroundsEndoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) is a permanent and effective treatment for primary hyperhidrosis and facial blushing; however, severe compensatory sweating (SCS) remains a devastating complication. We aimed to (i) construct a nomogram to predict the risk of SCS, and (ii) investigate factors associated with the level of ...

Journal of Anesthesia, 2013 Endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) for the treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis is generally performed at one or two levels ranging between T2 and T4; however, compensatory sweating (CS) is an occasional bothersome side effect. The aim of our study was to evaluate the association between the extent of ETS and the degree of postoperative CS and palmar

No compensatory sweating after botulinum toxin treatment of palmar hyperhidrosis
British Journal of Dermatology, 2005Primary focal hyperhidrosis is caused by excessive secretion by eccrine sweat glands, usually at the palms, soles and axillae. The underlying mechanism is unclear. In recent years botulinum toxin A has emerged as a useful treatment. Compensatory sweating, which is a major problem in many patients who have undergone transthoracic endoscopic ...

Compensatory Sweating After Upper Thoracic Sympathectomy. Prospective Study of 123 Cases
Archivos De Bronconeumologia, 2004The most unpleasant consequence of upper thoracic sympathectomy is compensatory sweating (CS). De-pending on the series, the incidence of CS ranges from 24% to 85%. The aim of this study was to determine the relation between CS and the following factors: distribution of hyperhidrosis, procedure performed (unilateral, synchronic bilateral, or sequential

Plantar Sweating as an Indicator of Lower Risk of Compensatory Sweating after Thoracic Sympathectomy
The Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgeon, 2016Background Hyperhidrosis is a dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system that results in regional excessive sweating, mostly in the hands, armpits, and feet. A permanent and effective treatment of hyperhidrosis can be achieved by interruption of the thoracic sympathetic chain with endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS).
