[A new method of performance of thoracic sympathectomy, based on the analysis of peculiarities of anatomical architecture of cervicothoracic sympathetic stem].

Peculiarities of anatomic structure (disposition, form, size) of stellate ganglion, II and III thoracic sympathetic ganglions together with their branches were suggested. There were established their morphological differences. Peculiarities of anatomical structure of the "lateral branch" II sympathetic ganglions were studied, its role in occurrence of the disease recurrence after performance of the thoracic sympathectomy performance was proved. Basing on the results achieved the method of thoracoscopic sympathectomy performance for Raynaud's phenomenon was elaborated.
