Extractions: Side Effects As any surgical procedure, ETS is associated with some degree of risk, but is overall a very safe procedure with few severe side effects. The risk-benefit assessment of the procedure needs to be done in the context of the original condition. The results presented below refer to the largest published study of more than 1,000 patients who had E.T.S. performed by various experienced surgeons (see Literature Reference List ETS-C is a new procedure that has already been tested in more than 1,000 patients with excellent results. Instead of burning the nerve by electro-cautery, which causes irreversible results, a clamp is placed on the sympathetic nerve to block nerve transmission. The clamp may be removed if the patient develops unacceptable compensatory sweating, and if done early enough, i.e. during the first weeks - months, the effects of surgery may be reversed.

Secondary Fractures of Le Fort I Osteotomy. Matthew W. Wilson, Pramod Maheshwari, Kathy Stokes, Michael J. Wheatley, Sean McLoughlin, Michael Talbot, W. T. Shults, Roger A. Dailey, and John L. Wobig Page 258 Abstract Purpose: To report the ophthalmic complications of Le Fort I osteotomy for the correction of dentofacial deformities and to determine the maximal compressive loads applied during pterygomaxillary separation in a cadaver model. Methods: Two cases of ophthalmic complications arising after Le Fort I osteotomy are reported. Le Fort I osteotomy was performed on five cadavers. The maximal compressive load applied during pterygomaxillary separation was recorded with a 10 kN (3,000 lbf) load cell of a MTS Mini-Bionix servohydraulic machine (MTS, Eden Prairie, MN, U.S.A.). A paired t test was used to compare forces applied to the right and left sides. Computed tomography scans of each specimen were obtained after Le Fort I osteotomy to document secondary fractures. The skulls were subsequently stained with 1% fuschin red to highlight secondary fractures.
Bridges Medical Clinic Facial hyperhidrosis should be distinguished from gustatory sweating, which isa secondary form of hyperhidrosis that occurs on the cheek in response to http://www.bridgesmedical.com/Hyperhidrosis_article.htm
Extractions: Lisa dates her problem with hyperhidrosis to her sophomore year of high school. It probably started a bit earlier, she thinks, but a humiliating experience during her Oral Communications class marks the symbolic beginning of her struggle with hyperhidrosis. After literally sweating through an oral presentation in front of the class, she heard a fellow student mutter in disgust, "Oh my God, look at her. Look at how bad she's sweating." Lisa still finds the memory painful. Being a 15-year-old girl is tough, but being a 15-year-old girl with hyperhidrosis is tougher. The fun of being a cheerleader was overshadowed by the turmoil of constantly worrying about how much she was sweating. She worked up the courage to tell her parents, but they didn't really understand. "I didn't even know that prescription antiperspirants existed, and I was too young to take the situation into my own hands," she remembers today at age 26. So she changed clothes 3 times a day, stuffed tissues, napkins, and paper towels in her armpits, and blamed herself. And that's how she coped with hyperhidrosis for the next 8 years. A newsmagazine show was on the TV, but Lisa wasn't paying much attention. Then she realized that the woman being interviewed was talking about her constant battle with sweating. "My head just spun around," remembers Lisa. "I thought it was just me, and so I blamed myself. Then I saw this woman on TV and I realized, I'm not the only one."

ETS Sweating Surgery Scientific News must be balanced against the risk of developing postsurgical complications, primarilycompensatory sweating and pathological gustatory sweating and flushing. http://www.ets-sideeffects.netfirms.com/home3.5.html
Extractions: THE LATEST SCIENTIFIC STUDIES AND NEWS ABOUT ETS SURGERY AND ITS SIDE-EFFECTS This site is hosted by Netfirms Web Hosting I have recently come across a paper by Dr Peter Drummond - a well known researcher in Scientific circles. Recently he has had a letter/article published in the British Journal of Dermatology on ETS and its side-effects. He basically cautions people to not choose ETS for sweating and blushing, due to CS. The title of the paper is: Drummond PD. A caution about surgical treatment for facial blushing. British Journal of Dermatology 2000; volume 142: pages 194-195. A caution about surgical treatment for facial blushing Pathological gustatory sweating and flushing can develop after injury to preganglionic cervico-thoracic sympathetic fibres, an unavoidable consequence of resecting that part of the sympathetic chain. The mechanism of this abnormal response is uncertain; conceivably, though, regeneration of injured salivatory fibres or collateral sprouting from nearby intact fibres creates aberrant connections between salivatory fibres and denervated vasomotor and sudomotor neurons in the superior cervical ganglion.(7) Commands to salivate would then be translated into commands to sweat and flush in the distribution of sympathetic denervation. Cross-innervation lower down in the stellate ganglion can also produce unusual and potentially distressing autonomic disturbances in the sympathetically-denervated arm (e.g., piloerection while eating).(8) If the source of the patient's problem is anxiety about blushing rather than blushing
Extractions: Seventeen patients with non-infectious chronic cystitis (NICC) (9 with interstitial cystitis, 6 patients with radiation cystitis, 1 with chemocystitis and 1 with lupoid cystitis) were treated with electromotive administration of intravesical lidocaine and dexamethasone followed by hydrodistension of the bladder. Complete resolution of symptoms for an average of 7.5 months was observed in 11 patients (65%), partial improvement in 4 (23.5%). In this series no complications occurred. Electromotive drug administration (EMDA) and cystodistension were well tolerated by all patients. The treatment was performed on an outpatient basis, thus reducing therapeutic costs. The results presented demonstrate that the combination of EMDA and bladder hydrodistension is an effective first-line treatment for NICC patients. C. R. Riedl, W. A. Hübner, H. Pflüger:

Extractions: In polite society horses sweat, men perspire and ladies glow. Actually it doesn't matter how you package it, the fact remains we all sweat as a natural response to a variety of situations. Imagine then a situation where you avoid shaking hands because they are dripping with sweat. You avoid touching paper or certain fabrics. You may need to change your shirt or your socks several times a day because they are saturated. When you give a presentation your forehead is dripping with sweat making you look nervous or insecure about what you are saying. By now you get the picture. Excessive sweating, or
Excessive Sweating / Hyperhidrosis Surgery Side Effects Another side effect is gustatory sweating. Here the patient willdevelop facial sweating while eating spicy or sour foods. This http://www.excessive-sweating.net/ets_side_effects.html
Extractions: No medical or surgical treatment is void of side effects. Obviously the sympathectomy has some and potential patients should known about them and discuss with the surgeon before proceeding with the procedure. The first one is compensatory sweating also known as reflex sweating. The patient will develop sweat on other parts of the body such as the lower legs, thighs, abdomen, or the back. The upper body from the chest and up will be dry. All patients will develop some degree of compensatory sweating. The majority on a level that will be tolerated. In most cases 93% to 94% the patients prefer the compensatory sweating to the original sweating. About 5% to 6% of the patients will develop severe compensatory sweating that will render those patients to be unhappy. Medication can sometimes help with severe compensatory sweating. For those patients who had the clamping method done the clamps can be removed and give the patient a possibility of reversal. The exact timing between application of the clamps and removal is not yet established but its thought to be effective within the first 6 months. Those patients on whom the clamps were removed describe some return of upper body sweating and hence reduction in their compensatory sweating. For those patients who had the cutting method done nerve graft reversal will be needed if they decide to try to reverse their severe compensatory sweating.
Extractions: A commercial preparation(s) that are available over the counter in order to help with normal (physiological) armpit sweating. There is a huge variety and each individual can choose the best antiperspirant for him/her. For severe armpit sweating there are some medicated antiperspirants such as drysol. A physiological mechanism which secretes sweat under normal conditions. Hot weather and anxiety conditions might increase the amount of sweating. Physical activity is known to increase armpit sweating. A small percentage of the population is affected by severe armpit sweating that can cause discomfort as well as embarrassment. This can be treated by extra strong antiperspirants or surgery. See Armpit Sweating

Stop Sweating gustatory sweating (typically isolated to a small portion of the foreheadin reaction to spicy foods) has occurred in a minimal number of cases. http://www.handsweat.com/sideeff.html
Extractions: ETS Surgery Side Effects Our method to stop sweating is safe and effective. While any surgical procedure has some degree of risk associated with it, the ETS procedure provided by The American Institute for Hyperhidrosis is the safest and most effective ETS surgery and is associated with only minimal side effects. The most common side effect is compensatory sweating (periodic perspiration around the lower stomach and back). This is, however, tolerable by most patients and only 3-5% describe it as troublesome. Some patients say it improves with time. Facial sweating and facial blushing patients reported success rates of 95% and 97% respectively. Gustatory sweating (typically isolated to a small portion of the forehead in reaction to spicy foods) has occurred in a minimal number of cases. Horner's Syndrome, which results in slight drooping of the eyelid and constriction of the pupil (with no impairment of vision) has occurred in less than 1% of patients. In addition, we have never had any life threatening complications and have never been forced to open the chest by conventional surgical methods. Bleeding or air leaks from the lung have been reported in rare cases but none of our patients experienced such complication.
