Abstract
Abstract
A retrospective survey of 142 lumbar sympathectomies has shown that this operation is of value in the treatment of rest pain and ischaemic ulceration, especially in the 61–70 age-group. It is of less value in claudication. Diabetics fare only slightly less well than non-diabetics. Two cases of ureteric injury are described. Neuralgia occurred in 12·6 per cent of patients.
