Cell body reorganization in the spinal cord after elective surgery to treat sweaty palms

The amount of compensatory sweating depends on the patient, the damage that the white rami communicans incurs, and the amount of cell body reorganization in the spinal cord after surgery.
Other potential complications include inadequate resection of the ganglia, gustatory sweating, pneumothorax, cardiac dysfunction, post-operative pain, and finally Horner’s syndrome secondary to resection of the stellate ganglion.

although producing no alterations in the thermal balance, does produce abnormalities in quantitative distribution of thermoregulatory sweating

JNS - Journal of Neurosurgery -: "The data demonstrate that the surgical removal of both the T-2 and the T-3 ganglia, although producing no alterations in the thermal balance, does produce abnormalities in quantitative distribution of thermoregulatory sweating in man."
