The No Sweat 15
Minutes procedure is performed under
general anaesthesia and two 5mm
incisions are made on each side of
the chest to allow access into the
chest cavities. With the aid of a
camera mounted on the thoracoscope,
the sympathetic chains are
visualized and duly divided or
clipped at the level of the third
and fourth thoracic vertebra. The
results are usually instantaneous
and the success rate is close to
100%. |
