Advances in optics, illumination and video-technology together with refinements in operative technique have made endoscopic transthoracoscopic sympathectomy (ETS) the method of choice for upper thoracic sympathectomy. Palmar hyperhidrosis is by far the main indication for ETS. The procedure is technically easy and well tolerated by patients, and complications are few and minor.
光学、照明及视频技术的进步,以及手术技术的改进,使内镜下经胸交感神经切除术(ETS)成为上胸段交感神经切除术的首选方法。目前,手掌多汗症是ETS的主要适应证。该手术技术上简单,患者耐受性良好,并发症少且轻微。
