Abstract
Thoracoscopic sympathectomy is considered the most effective treatment for hyperhidrosis palmaris. We have treated 1,043 cases of this disease by this method. We have developed an outpatient technique of thoracoscopic sympathectomy using electrocautery. This procedure has been used in 47 patients with hyperhidrosis palmaris. The early results have been favorable. We describe this fast, safe, economic, and effective method for the treatment of hyperhidrosis palmaris.Entities:
