Thoracoscopic sympathicotomy for XXXX --surgical technique, complications and side effects.

@entity1 @entity548 @entity1514 @entity1119 @entity158
@entity1514 sympathectomy is a very effective treatment of palmar @entity1119 . The described endoscopic technique has given good primary results in 99% of @entity1 . After another session with this type of "minimal invasive surgery" 100% of the hands were satisfactorily dry. The hospital stay is just one post-operative day and the sick-leave is about a week. The drawbacks are minimal. @entity158 is tolerable and only eight @entity1 needed a post-operative B  lau-drainage because of pneumothorax or @entity548 . About 50% of @entity1 experience a compensatory increased sweating of the trunk, but this is related to a warm environment and regulation of body temperature and seems to decrease with time. This technique makes it possible to treat all those suffering from palmar @entity1119 which can be a substantial, but underestimated handicap. To meet this kind of @entity1 after a successful operation is extremely satisfying even for the surgeon. The post-operative wet and cold hand has immediately post-operatively become warm and dry.
