Abstract

Lumbar Sympathectomy is a surgery for plantar hyperhidrosis, vascular and other reflex sympathetic diseases and has a various indications and physiologic effects. However it is not performed actively compared to thoracic sympathectomy because of its invasiveness. Therefore, we tried to perform lumbar sympathectomy using mediastinoscopy with small incision and introduce this new surgical technique. Material and Method: From July 2003 to December 2004, 18 patients undewent lumbar sympathectomy with mediastinoscopy at Inje University Sanggye Paik Hospital. There were 12 males and 6 females whose mean age was 24.3$\pm$8.2 years ranging from 18 to 67 30 cases of lumbar sympathectomy was performed with mediastinoscopy of which 24 cases were for plantar hyperhidrosis and 6 cases for other diseases. Result: Mean operation time was 37.2$\pm$12.5 minutes and mean post operation hospital stay was 3.1$\pm$2.2 days. There was one post sympathetic neuralgia and one peritoneal opening. Conclusion: Lumbar sympathectomy using mediastinoscopy is a simple and effective technique and has the advantage of cosmetics, post operative pain and hospital stay. However, further studies with large number of cases should be carried out for better outcome.

요부 교감 신경 절제술은 족부 다한증, 하지 혈관 질환 및 신경계 질환의 치료를 목적으로 시행되는 수술로 흉부교감 신경 절제술에 비해 수술 빈도는 많이 떨어지나, 최근의 수술 경향인 최소 침습 수술의 발달과 복강경을 이용한 요부 교감 신경 절제술이 소개되면서 관심이 증가되었다 대상 및 방법: 2003년 7월부터 2004년 12월까지 18명의 환자에서 종격동경을 이용한 요부 교감 신경 절제술을 시행하였는데 환자의 남녀비는 12:6으로 남자가 많았고 평균 연령은 24.3세였으며, 수술 부위는 12명의 족부 다한증 환자에서는 양측을 수술하였고 나머지 6명의 환자에서는 좌측 4예, 우측 2예의 수술을 시행하여 총 30예의 요부 교감 신경 절제술을 시행하였다. 결과: 평균 수술 시간은 37.2$\pm$12.5 분이었으며 수술 후 평균 재원일은 3.1$\pm$2.2일이였다. 결론: 종격동경을 이용한 요부 교감 신경 절제술은 간단하고 효과적인 수술 방법으로, 미용적인 측면과 수술 후 동통의 감소 및 수술 후 재원 기간의 단축 등의 장점이 있는 수술이라고 생각되며, 향후 더 많은 수의 환자에서 결과를 분석하여 더 나은 결과를 가져올 수 있다고 예상된다.
