Laparoscopic lumbar sympathectomy for Buerger’s disease
Objective:To review the feasibility and efficacy of partial lumbar sympathectomy for Buerger’s disease with video-assisted laparoscopic lumbar sympathectomy (VALLS).Methods:From July 2002 to Octomber 2003
7 patients with Buerger’s disease were treated in our hospita1 with VALLS.3 cases underwent bilateral resection
3 cases left side resection
1 case right side resection
1 case common femoral-superficial femora1 artery bypass
1 case right greater saphenous vein arterialization
and 2 cases toes amputation.Results:All the 7 cases were confirmed by pathological examination(one was reported as one lymph node).The skin temperature of lower limb immediately rose significantly after operation.Serious complications were not found in all the patients.Only one case developed aerodermectasia
but recovered completely after three days of symptomatic therapy.Follow-up survey of 2-18 months(with mean of 8.7 months)showed the effect was satisfactory with the manifestations of normal limb temperature
improved blood supply
remission and resolution of the pain.Conclusion:Because of its small incision
little wound
excellent view of the retroperitoneal space and accurate anatomical location
VALLS is relatively simpler than classical operation and its effect is satisfactory.
