class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The lumbar sympathectomy was first described by Julio Diez,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib1">1</a> of Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1924 and subsequently by Royle<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib2">2</a> in Australia and Adson<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib3">3</a> in the United States. It was initially utilized for the treatment of ischemic and painful disorders of the lower limbs. This treatment, which was popular among vascular surgeons, remained unchanged for several decades. Its use slowly decreased after 1960, when arterial reconstruction techniques were introduced. It is still useful for some patients with vascular diseases; however, it is particularly useful in the treatment of plantar hyperhidrosis (PHH).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib4">4</a></p><p id="para20" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Primary hyperhidrosis (HH) is the most frequent indication for sympathectomies, both lumbar and thoracic.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib4">4</a> This disease affects about 1% of the population and is characterized by excessive sweating in specific regions of the body such as the hands, face, scalp, axilla and feet. The endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) is indicated for the treatment of palmar, axillary and craniofacial hyperhidrosis. The results of plantar excessive perspiration, however, are less expressive (improved in up to 58% of cases).<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib5">5</a> Many patients with PHH who have undergone ETS still continue to experience excessive sweating of the feet after surgery.</p><p id="para30" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The endoscopic retroperitoneal lumbar sympathectomy (ERLS) is efficient in the treatment of PHH isolated from or associated with other affected areas that persisted after ETS.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib6">6–7</a> It is believed, however, that there could be a worsening of compensatory sweating (CS), when adding the effects of ETS to the lumbar regions of the same patient.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib8">8–10</a> It is highly probable that suppression of one more segment of the sympathetic chain could actually increase CS. This is one of the principal doubts concerning lumbar sympathectomy but, despite this, has not been well-characterized in the literature.</p><p id="para40" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The objective of this study was to evaluate whether endoscopic retroperitoneal lumbar sympathectomy is effective in controlling plantar hyperhidrosis and whether it increases the compensatory sweat generated after thoracic sympathectomy.

Less surgical stress and more-controlled tissue lesions enabled the patient to move about and also reduced complications. The concept of endoscopic surgery incorporated for thoracic sympathectomy brings about a great technical advance. A surgery that was at one time performed using large incisions, causing intense discomfort and high morbidity, has become minimally invasive. The innovation of minimal invasiveness has rapidly been adapted to surgical manipulation of the sympathetic chain due to its simplicity, rapidity, efficacy and less-aggressive nature. Similarly, the choice of a surgical method for controlling PHH should be endoscopic. ERLS comparisons with open surgery demonstrated its clear aesthetic superiority as well as overall functional recovery.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib21">21</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib22">22</a></p></span><span id="cesec140" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle190">Resection level and pre-operative localization</span><p id="para400" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In this study, we performed a LG2 and LG3 sympathectomy, following the principle that LG2 is situated along the lumbar spine, below the inferior renal pole, which should be our superior limit of dissection. Once the ganglion was located, its resection followed, as well as resection of the next ganglion immediately inferior to it. The anatomic location of the kidneys was confirmed by the pre-operative ultrasonography in all patients. Lumbar sympathectomy is predominantly a pre-ganglion surgery when LG4 is left intact because that’s where the majority of the synapses of pre- and post-ganglion fibers occur.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib9">9</a> We decided to remove only LG2 and LG3.

This fact demonstrates a high degree of aesthetic exigency in this population, making conventional surgery for PHH almost unacceptable for these young patients. Hyperhidrosis interferes with patient self-esteem and vanity, which obliges surgeons to search for the best possible cosmetic results in this type of treatment.</p></span><span id="cesec160" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle210">Compensatory sweating</span><p id="para430" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In the present study, CS characterization was performed by directed questions, analyses of QOL and sweating assessment. When patients were asked for their impression about CS at six months after the operation, the results were similar to those of our previous study.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib28">28</a> Of the 15 patients, 53% reported worsening of CS, mainly on hotter days or when performing physical activities. The mean BMI (body mass index) of the operated group was low (21.7 kg/m<span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span>); the group consisted of thin patients.

Considering only the subjective impression of patients, we observe that there is an increase in CS after ERLS; this could be related to BMI.</p></span><span id="cesec170" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle220">Quality of Life</span><p id="para440" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Analyzing the means and standard deviations of the QOL scores in the test group, we observed a considerable drop in QOL values after ERLS. The mean decreased from 73.08 points to 26.33 (best possible score: 21). This reflects the effectiveness of ERLS in the control of PHH and the inconvenience that the disease generated in these patients.</p><p id="para450" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">These results are confirmed in the comparison between post-ERLS scores of the test and control groups six months after the first interview. The mean scores were 26.3 and 47.6, respectively, with a significant advantage for the test group. The improvement of plantar sweating supplanted even the occasional inconvenience caused by the development or worsening of CS. For these patients, CS is not as important as PHH, even if it might be considered more visible than foot sweat. The ability to use an open shoe, to dance, and to be free of foot infection should not be underestimated for a woman, especially in a hot climate.</p></span><span id="cesec180" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle230">Sweat Measurement</span><p id="para460" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">With the aim of objectively proving ERLS effectiveness with respect to the control of foot sweating, two comparisons were made. In the test group, the amounts of foot sweating were compared before and after ERLS. The observed values demonstrate that patients presented with significantly lower measures of plantar sudoresis after the procedure. A second comparison examined plantar sudoresis of the test group after ERLS versus the equivalent measures of the control group. In this case, we also observed measurements of plantar sudoresis of the test group to be significantly lower than those of the control group. Therefore, this confirms that the patients who underwent ERLS experienced less sweating of the feet; this alteration is directly assessed by the TEWL measurement, as previously observed in other studies (Pedevilla et all, 7th International Society of Sympathetic Surgery; 2007).</p><p id="para470" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Prior to the present study, some evidence suggested that surgery did indeed, provide control in PHH. At that point, the evidence for sudoresis control was limited to the degree of patient satisfaction after ERLS, as well as the clinical observation of dry feet skin. Currently, we have more objective criteria for this evaluation at our disposal. Combining these analyses with improvements in quality of life and results reported by the patients, we can confirm the efficiency of the ERLS in PHH treatment.</p><p id="para480" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The development or worsening of CS was reported by 8 (53.3%) of our patients. Several comparisons were made with the intent to confirm this observation. The values for sweating in the abdominal and dorsal regions were compared between the test and control groups and between the pre- and post-ERLS period, grouping the supra- and infra-umbilical measurements, as well as measuring them separately.</p><p id="para490" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Comparing sweat from the supra-umbilical region of the test group to the corresponding values of the control group, and consecutively for the infra-umbilical, superior dorsal, and inferior dorsal regions, we were able to obtain some significant information. There was a statistical difference between the superior dorsal and infra-umbilical regions. Patients of the test group presented with more sweating in these regions relative to the control group. These data, in association with those obtained in the post-ERLS interview, led to the observation that this surgery can provoke an increase in CS, for patients who have undergone prior ETS. Furthermore, these data corroborate previous studies.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib9">9</a>,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib10">10</a></p></span><span id="cesec190" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="cestitle240">Future Perspectives</span><p id="para500" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The TEWL utilized in this study demonstrates a practical, reliable, and easily reproducible method of measuring sudoresis. It should be adopted as the method of choice for objective measurement of sweating in future studies. On the other hand, QOL questionnaires also demonstrate their importance in the analysis of diseases such as HH. The improvement of quality of life is a target parameter in the quality of treatment. New models of questionnaires should be developed and validated for each region affected by HH.</p><p id="para510" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Randomized studies can serve to improve the quality of future studies.

Its complications are acceptable and well-tolerated by patients. We believe that this technique should become the treatment of choice for primary or persistent PHH after ETS, due to the tremendous benefit to patients. Its development also depends upon strict participation on the part of the patients, to whom falls the burden of observing and reporting all possible and long-term side effects.</p><p id="para530" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Finally, data generated by ETS should be incorporated logically into the ERLS.
