Endoscopic thoracic sympathicotomy of T2 to T4 (ETS 2-4) has evolved into an effective treatment for severe hyperhidrosis of the upper limb. Complications such as bleeding or Horner's syndrome are rare, but side effects such as compensatory and gustatory sweating occur in 30-50% of patients. Following the Lin-Telaranta classification, we aimed to reduce these side-effects by clipping T4 solely [endoscopic thoracic sympathetic block (ESB 4)]. We present our experience and clinical results using this method, with emphasis on patients' quality of life.
