تهدف هذه الدراسة إلى تقييم خزع السلسلة الودية الصدرية بالتنظير كطريقة علاجية لحالات فرط تعرق راحتي اليدين والإبطين , وذلك على عينة من (39) مريضاً , تتراوح أعمارهم بين (45 -17) سنة .
بلغ مجموع العمليات الجراحية المجراة لهؤلاء المرضى (78) عملية جراحية حيث خضع كل مريض لخزع السلسلة الودية الصدرية بالتنظيرT2-T4 بالجانبين في نفس الجلسة الجراحية .
نسبة النجاح - أي غياب التعرق في راحتي اليدين والإبطين - بلغت 100% .
إن المضاعفة الأكثر إزعاجاً للمرضى هي التعرق المعاوض في الجزع الذي حدث لدى 28% من مرضانا.
إن النتائج التي حصلنا عليها كانت مشجعة و واعدة والمضاعفات كانت مقبولة.
لذلك فإننا ننصح باعتماد طريقة خزع السلسلة الودية الصدرية T2-T4 كعلاج مثالي لحالات فرط تعرق راحتي اليدين و الإبطين.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the thoracoscopic sympathectomy as a
mini-invasive surgical procedure for the treatment of palmar and axillary hyperhidrosis.
39 patients were involved in this study.
The ages were ranging between (17_45) years.
78 surgical procedures were performed for these patients. Every patient underwent
simultaneously -in the same op-sitting-bilateral thoracoscopic sympathectomies T2-T4 .
Succass rate, i.e , abscence of axillary and palmar hyperhidrosis, was 100%.
The most discomfortable complicantion for the patients was compensatory sweating
which happend in 28% of our patients.
The reuslts we achieved were very encouraging and promising , and the complications
