Surgery for Excessive Sweating or Hyperhidrosis

Services:

Excessive sweating surgery or hyperhidrosis is a surgical procedure performed to address chronic and excessive sweating in specific areas of the body, such as the hands, feet, armpits, or face.

Hyperhidrosis can be an emotional, social, and professional issue for many individuals.

Excessive sweating surgery is carried out using minimally invasive surgical techniques and involves interrupting the nerves that control sweating in the affected areas. The goal of the surgery is to permanently reduce or eliminate excessive sweating.

Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery: Scientific Method

Video-Assisted Thoracic Surgery (VATS) is an advanced scientific method that utilizes video technology to perform surgical procedures in the thoracic cavity, which includes the lungs, pleura, and mediastinum. This minimally invasive approach involves the introduction of a video camera and small surgical instruments through small incisions, rather than making a larger incision to access the thoracic cavity.

Main Features of VATS:

Small Incisions: Uses small incisions, reducing tissue trauma and speeding up patient recovery.

Video Camera: The camera provides detailed real-time images, allowing the surgeon to visualize the work area with precision.

Specialized Instrumentation: Thin and specialized surgical instruments enable the performance of complex procedures with precision.

Less Pain and Recovery Time: By minimizing the size of incisions, postoperative pain is reduced, and recovery time is shortened compared to traditional surgery.

Common Applications of VATS:

• Lung Surgery: Resection of lung tumors, biopsies, and treatment of lung diseases.
• Treatment of Pleural Effusions: Drainage and treatment of fluid accumulation in the pleura.
• Mediastinal Surgery: Interventions in the area between the lungs, such as the removal of tumors.
