Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change from baseline in severity of hyperhidrosis on visual analogue scale at 24 months
decrease in the severity of hyperhidrosis, both palmar and plantar, according to visual analogue scale
24 months
Study Arms (1)
Staged ETS
EXPERIMENTALVideo-assisted endoscopic sympathicotomy from level of T3 to level of T12 on one side
Interventions
Thoracoscopic approach of sympathetic ganglia T3-T12 on one side, retraction of the diaphragm and lung laterally to expose the ganglia then ablation of each ganglion using electrocauterization.
