Currently it is used primarily for hyperhydrosis, although sympathectomy for reflex sympathetic dystrophy (RSD), Raynaud disease and other diseases still are performed, but less frequently.

A very distal sympathectomy at the level of the origin of the proper digital arteries has been devised. Four men and four women have been operated on for digital vascular insufficiency due to frostbite, crush injuries, scleroderma, and Raynaud's disease. The operation is done through a palmar approach and the adventitia removed, over a length of 3 to 4
