     "Intravesical Electromotive Drug Administration for the Treatment of Non-Infectious Chronic Cystitis",
     Int. Urogynecol. J. 8, 134-137, 1997
     Seventeen patients with non-infectious chronic cystitis (NICC) (9 with interstitial cystitis, 6 patients with radiation cystitis, 1 with chemocystitis and 1 with lupoid cystitis) were treated with electromotive administration of intravesical lidocaine and dexamethasone followed by hydrodistension of the bladder. Complete resolution of symptoms for an average of 7.5 months was observed in 11 patients (65%), partial improvement in 4 (23.5%). In this series no complications occurred. Electromotive drug administration (EMDA) and cystodistension were well tolerated by all patients. The treatment was performed on an outpatient basis, thus reducing therapeutic costs. The results presented demonstrate that the combination of EMDA and bladder hydrodistension is an effective first-line treatment for NICC patients.

     "Hyperhidrose der oberen Extremität: Langzeitergebnisse der endoskopischen thorakalen Sympathektomie",
     Langenbecks Arch Chir. (Suppl.II): 1287-1289, 1997
     A total of 630 endoscopic thoracal sympathicotomies were performed for hyperhidrosis of the upper limbs, and complications and success rates were analyzed after a median follow-up period of 16 years (83% of patients). In all, 67.8% of patients were fully satisfied, 25.7% were partially satisfied and would again agree to the operation, and 93% the procedure terminated hyperhidrosis permanently. Compensatory and gustatory sweating was observed in 67% und 47% of cases, respectively, impairing the patients satisfaction. Overall success was significantly (p < 0.001) lower in the group with axillary hyperhidrosis.

     Eur.J.Surg., Suppl. 580, 1997
     OBJECTIVE: To evaluate of the results of thoracoscopic sympathicotomy for upper limb hyperhidrosis with a median observation period of more than 15 years. DESIGN: Retrospective clinical observation study. SETTING: University-affiliated tertiary referral centre. SUBJECTS: 630 consecutive operations in 352 patients (median age 30.1 yrs) for primary palmar (68%), axillary (12.7%) and combined hyperhidrosis (19.3%). INTERVENTIONS: Thoracoscopic sympathicotomy from below T1 to T4 including the fibres of Kuntz using electrocautery through single site access. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Perioperative success and complication rates (all patients); long-term follow-up by a questionnaire and/or clinical examination (83.3% of patients) after a median period of 16 yrs. Calculation of statistical significance of differences between groups with c2-test. RESULTS: 67.8% of patients were fully satisfied, 25.7% were partially satisfied and would again agree to the operation. In 93% the procedure cured hyperhidrosis permanently. Compensatory and gustatory sweating was observed in 67% and 47% of cases, respectively. Overall success was significantly (p < 0.001) lower in the group with axillary hyperhidrosis. Main complications: drainage for pneumothorax 1.3%, Horner's syndrome in 3.8%, subcutaneous emphysema 2.1%. CONCLUSION: Thoracoscopic sympathicotomy proved to be highly effective even after long-term follow-up. Compensatory sweating impairs patients' satisfaction in some cases.
