Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical outcomes of bilateral endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) through single hole for palmar hyperhidrosis (PHH).Methods From August 2012 to April 2013, 19 PHH patients were admitted in the Department of Thoracic Surgery, The Third People's Hospital of Chengdu. There were 7 male and 12 female patients with their age of 24.7(15-33) years. All the patients underwent bilateral ETS through single hole under general anesthesia.Results All the operations were successfully performed. Average operation time was 28.4 minutes, and postoperative hospital stay was 1.6 days. Seventeen patients were followed up for 2 to 10 months. PHH symptoms all disappeared without Horner's syndrome or hemopneumothorax.Conclusion Bilateral ETS through single hole is a minimally invasive, reliable and safe procedure for PHH with low morbidity.
