Evaluation of Compensatory Sweating After Bilateral Thoracoscopic Sympathectomy for Palmar Hyperhidrosis

Surgical Laparoscopy, Endoscopy & Percutaneous Techniques, 2007
The study is a retrospective review of 60 patients undergoing bilateral T2-T3 thoracoscopic sympathectomy for palmar hyperhidrosis in our department between 1997 and 2003. The study was based on a telephone questionnaire and medical chart review. Forty patients (67%) replied to the questionnaire and were included in the study.

Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy for Severe Hyperhidrosis: Impact of Restrictive Denervation on Compensatory Sweating

The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 2006
Compensatory sweating is noted frequently after sympathectomy and may be difficult to control in some patients. This prospective trial was projected to measure the impact of limited denervation on compensatory sweating while performing endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy.One hundred seventy-eight patients (127 female and 51 male) with severe primary ...

Long-term outcomes and predictors of compensatory sweating after bilateral endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy

European Journal of Cardio-thoracic Surgery
Abstract OBJECTIVES Bilateral endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy is an effective treatment for primary hyperhidrosis, yet the causes of its main side effect, compensatory sweating, remain unclear. This study aimed to identify risk factors for compensatory sweating in a long-term follow-up cohort.

Does Sequential Thoracoscopic Sympathectomy Affect the Development of Postoperative Compensatory Sweating in Children?

Journal of Pediatric Surgery
The development of compensatory sweating (CS) following thoracoscopic sympathectomy (TS) for palmar hyperhidrosis (PH) is the major drawback of this procedure. Several techniques were proposed to minimize the occurrence of CS such as changing the level of sympathectomy or conducting it sequentially on both sides with an interval between the two ...

Compensatory Sweating Following Upper Thoracic Sympathectomy for Palmar Hyperhidrosis: Can It Be Avoided?

Pediatric Endosurgery & Innovative Techniques, 2000

Efficacy of thoracic sympathectomy in the treatment of hyperhidrosis and management of compensatory sweating

Journal of Comprehensive Surgery
Thoracic sympathectomy is a widely recognized surgical intervention for treating hyperhidrosis, a condition characterized by excessive sweating that significantly impairs patients' quality of life. Despite its efficacy, this procedure often leads to compensatory sweating (CS), which remains a substantial challenge in patient management.
