From May 2003 to June 2006, sixty patients with palmar hyperhidrosis were included, underwent sympathectomy and were followed up. The surgical treatment was selected randomly. Patients with prior thoracic surgery, cardiac diseases, pulmonary infections, neoplasia or pleural or lung diseases that could increase surgical risk, or with a body mass index (BMI) greater than 25 were not included in this study.</p><p id="para50" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Twenty-four of the patients had undergone previous attempts at clinical treatment. Most of these (18 cases) had used local dermatological therapies (creams and lotions).

Two mini-incisions of approximately 5.5 mm each were made: the first into the fourth or fifth intercostal space on the anterior axillary line (in the submammary sulcus for the women), through which a video camera was introduced, and the second into the second intercostal space on the mid-axillary line, through which an electric or harmonic bistoury was introduced. The level of ganglion resection was randomly assigned; half of the patients were resected at the T2 level and the other half at the T3 level. After identification of the sympathetic chain in the patients drawn for the T2 group, it was sectioned (sympathicotomy) on the body of the second and third ribs, followed by thermoablation of the segment isolated between the ribs. The patients drawn for the T3 group underwent sectioning of the sympathetic chain (sympathicotomy) on the body of the third and fourth ribs, followed by thermoablation of the segment isolated between the ribs.

With a diagnostic hypothesis of technical failure, this patient underwent a new operation using thermoablation at the same level (T3) but without improvement of the palmar hyperhidrosis. Thus, we had one case of therapeutic failure in the T3 group. Currently, this patient is receiving clinical treatment with anticholinergics and has achieved a small clinical improvement in the hyperhidrosis.

Consequently, clinical treatment was frequently used despite the unsatisfactory results. Videothoracoscopic sympathectomy has become the surgical technique of choice today because it is a minimally invasive technique that is safe and esthetically acceptable<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib3">3,10</a>. Various papers published on the use of this technique for treating hyperhidrosis have presented very encouraging success rates.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib3">3,13,14,15</a></p><p id="para290" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Although there is no evidence for any difference in the prevalence of palmar hyperhidrosis between the sexes<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib16">16</a>, women usually seek treatment more frequently and therefore end up undergoing sympathectomy more often.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib1">1,3,5,8,14,17,18</a> This is perhaps because of greater discomfort relating to esthetics as compared to men. In our study as well, the patients were predominantly female (41 women versus 19 men).</p><p id="para300" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Similar to other studies on this subject, most of our patients initially showed symptoms during childhood,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib16">16,19</a> and more than half had evidence of family distribution and history.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib3">3,16</a></p><p id="para310" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Because of the early clinical presentation for individuals with hyperhidrosis, most studies have assessed very young populations, usually in their second and third decades of life. In our study, the patients were also young, with a mean age of 23.4 ± 5.3 years (T2) and 23.2 ± 6.5 years (T3). There are many advantages to carrying out a surgical procedure on young and healthy patients, but one negative factor in conducting any scientific study on such patients is that this is an age at which individuals frequently migrate. Loss from follow-up is a possibility observed in prospective studies,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib20">20</a> and this also occurred in our sample, with the loss of three patients (two from the T2 group and one from the T3 group).</p><p id="para320" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">When performing sympathectomy at the T2 level, the T2 ganglion is probably resected in most cases, as suggested by Ramsaroop et al., who studied 22 cadavers and demonstrated that the second ganglion was in fact located in the second intercostal space.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib21">21</a> In addition, Chung et al. observed from dissecting 27 cadavers that the second thoracic ganglion (T2) was most commonly (50%) located in the middle of the second intercostal space, and in 78.8% of cases it was easily observed in the space between the lower edge of the second rib and the upper edge of the third rib.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib22">22</a> According to Kim, from analysis of images from 44 cases of sympathectomy using videothoracoscopy, the third ganglion was located in the third intercostal space in 59.1%, at the upper edge of the fourth rib in 36.4%, or on the fourth rib in 4.5%.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib23">23</a> Therefore, by sectioning the chain on the third and fourth ribs and performing thermoablation of the segment between them, we were dealing with the T3 ganglion in the great majority of cases.</p><p id="para330" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">For many years, it was believed that the ideal treatment for palmar hyperhidrosis would be sympathectomy on the T2 ganglion or on T2 and T3, because it was thought that the T2 ganglion would be the only one responsible for sympathetic innervation of the upper limbs. It would thus be the “key” ganglion for sympathetic denervation.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib18">18</a> The need for a combined approach towards the T2 and T3 ganglia has been based on the description of the Kuntz nerve (postganglionic fibers that would go from the T2 or T3 ganglion to the brachial plexus)<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib24">24</a>. For this reason, some authors have advocated sympathectomy at the levels of the T2 and T3 ganglia,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib25">25</a> while others have proposed more extensive approaches going from T2 to T4.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib14">14</a> In recent studies such as that by Lin and Telaranta, which was based on postoperative follow-up, the anatomical knowledge and denervation level used for hyperhidrosis treatment have been discussed again.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib26">26</a></p><p id="para340" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Among palmar hyperhidrosis patients for whom the primordial factor in the treatment would be palmar anhydrosis, a lower denervation level might be associated with lack of success and high recurrence rates.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib17">17</a> In our sample, we only observed therapeutic failure in one case in the T3 group. Initial treatment failure is mostly related to inadequate sympathectomy, and a second operation is indicated to resolve the condition<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib8">8</a>. Despite surgical re-intervention, our patient did not show any improvement in the palmar hyperhidrosis. This leads us to believe that in a small number of patients, a “neurological escape route” depending on T2 fibers or postganglionic T2 fibers may exist and thereby maintain palmar hyperhidrosis when such individuals undergo thoracic sympathectomy at the T3 ganglionic level. None of our patients presented recurrence of symptoms 20 months after the operation; this may have been because we sectioned the sympathetic chain in the segments above and below the selected ganglion, and then performed thermoablation on the segment thus isolated. This procedure was more complete and wide-ranging, and it impeded nerve fiber regeneration. The latter is more frequently observed in cases of sympathicotomy than in ca ses of sympathectomy.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib27">27</a></p><p id="para350" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Horner’s syndrome has become a rare complication today because the technique has developed, surgical teams have become more experienced and video equipment providing adequate viewing of the sympathetic chain is now used.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib28">28</a> Its occurrence is limited to cases of indirect lesion of the stellate ganglion (T1) due to heat diffusion or excessive traction of the chain.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib19">19,27</a> Like other authors, we believe that by performing sympathectomy aimed at ganglia further away from T1 (for example, T3), the incidence of this syndrome should diminish, as was seen in our sample of patients. The only case of Horner’s syndrome was in a patient in the T3 group who presented adherent tissue that needed to be detached from one of the lungs. Heat transmission during this procedure led to the appearance of Horner’s sign, but it had completely regressed by the time of the one-month follow-up.</p><p id="para360" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Is our sample of patients, just as in the majority of studies in the recent literature, compensatory hyperhidrosis was the most frequent complication. This is also the complication that is most feared because it may lead to postoperative dissatisfaction among patients.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib14">14,17,29,30</a> Its incidence has been variable in the studies dealing with this topic.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib3">3,11,14,15,17,18</a> In our study, it initially occurred more frequently among the cases in the T2 group, but at the end of the follow-up (20 months), all the cases that had undergone sympathectomy in both groups presented some degree of compensatory hyperhidrosis.</p><p id="para370" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">We believe that the high incidence of compensatory hyperhidrosis seen among our patients may be related to the tropical climate of Brazil, where temperatures are high for the greater part of the year. This consequently leads to greater sweating. Another reason for the high incidence was the more conservative definition used for classifying hyperhidrosis as compared to other authors. At present, there is no consensus for standardizing the definition of compensatory hyperhidrosis. For this reason, we used a more wide-ranging criterion: the presence of sudoresis in parts of the body where it did not exist prior to surgery, even if such sweating was observed only under specific conditions (intense heat or physical exercise).</p><p id="para380" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The classification used in our study was more objective and simpler than that described by Gossot,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib17">17</a> who defined four different levels of severity of compensatory hyperhidrosis (absent; mild or intermittent; embarrassing, in which sudoresis is visible; and incapacitating, in which there is the need for more than one change of clothing per day). We believe that the the incapacitating level of severity might interfere with quality of life, and therefore classified our patients into two levels of severity: severe (incapacitating) and non-severe.</p><p id="para390" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">There seems to be a correlation between the severity of the compensatory hyperhidrosis and the extent and level of the resection in the sympathectomy.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib8">8,18,26,31,32,33</a> In our study, only one ganglion (T2 or T3) was resected in each of the groups; thus this was a homogenous series with respect to resection extent. Consequently, we can state that the obtained results were related only to resection level, which seems to be the most important factor for predicting the severity of the compensatory hyperhidrosis when evaluating the surgical technique.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib8">8,26,27</a></p><p id="para400" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Katara et al<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib10">10</a> recently published a study that compared ablation of the T2 ganglion with ablation of T2 and T3; there was no difference in the results with regard to efficacy (100% success), recurrence (no cases), incidence of compensatory hyperhidrosis (80% of the cases), severity of the compensatory hyperhidrosis (no severe cases) and satisfaction subsequent to the procedure (> 80%).</p><p id="para410" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Corroborating the data from that study, Miller et al.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib11">11</a> retrospectively analyzed 50 cases that underwent sympathicotomy at the T2 rib.
