Abstrakt: Experience has demonstrated that severe hyperhidrosis, resistant to medical therapy, can he cured permanently by sympathetic denervation of the hands or feet, or by skin excision for axillary problems. The technique and results of these procedures is discussed. The clinical profile is so characteristic that differential diagnosis is not a problem. Whether a condition which is socially embarrassing rather than life threatening warrants surgery, is discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
