摘要：

Introduction. Unilateral hyperhidrosis can be a neurological manifestation of irritations of the central or peripheral nervous system. Case presentation. We present the case of a 67-year-old German man who had hyperhidrosis of his right upper body quadrant (including face, arm, and chest) following intrathoracic surgery of a left-sided pleural lipoma. Conclusion: An isolated unilateral hyperhidrosis might occur after intrathoracic surgery. Besides anticholinergic drugs the use of botulinum toxin should be considered. © 2013 Brodoehl et al.; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.
