Effectiveness and safety of the improved mini-incision surgery for osmidrosis treatment.
Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology 2021 December
BACKGROUND: As the mainstream treatment of axillary osmidrosis, surgical treatment is still limited by various complications, such as paresthesia, scars, local infection, hematoma, flap necrosis, and long recovery time. In this study, we tried to adopt the improved mini-incision surgery for osmidrosis treatment.
OBJECTIVES: The paper aims to evaluate the clinical effectiveness and safety of the improved mini-incision surgery for axillary osmidrosis treatment.
PATIENTS/METHODS: Clinical series of patients underwent improved mini-incision surgery were retrospectively reviewed. Dates of complications, including paresthesia, scars, infection, hematoma, skin necrosis, and recurrence were analyzed.
RESULTS: Among 61 cases, 58 cases had a preoperative osmidrosis score of 3 and 3 cases had a preoperative score of 2; while 13 cases had a postoperative osmidrosis score of 0, 43 cases had a postoperative score of 1 and 5 cases had a postoperative score of 2, significantly lower than that before (p < 0.001). A total of 12 axillae complications occurred, 2 axillae (1.6%) had paresthesia; 5 axillae (4.1%) had hematoma; 2 axillae (1.6%) had local flap necrosis due to hematoma; and 3 axillae (2.4%) had hypertrophic scars.
CONCLUSIONS: The results showed that the improved mini-incision surgery was safe and effective for osmidrosis treatment.
