Abstract

Background: Axillary hyperhidrosis and bromhidrosis are common clinical diseases, affecting the patients' work and life. Negative-pressure suction-curettage is the most popular treatment now, but challenged by a new microwave-based therapy (MiraDry). We intend to compare the safety and efficiency of the 2 treatments.

Methods: A retrospective analysis of 39 female patients with both primary hyperhidrosis and bromhidrosis was conducted. Seventeen patients were treated with MiraDry, and 22 underwent negative-pressure suction-curettage. The postoperative follow-up program included sweat and odor assessments, satisfaction measurement, safety evaluation, and recurrence assessment at different time points until 12 months.

Results: Both treatments showed a significant reduction (P < 0.05) in HDSS score and odor level at 6 and 12 months compared with the baseline. No significant difference in relative reduction was observed between the 2 groups. The satisfaction score of the microwave-based therapy group was higher than that of the negative-pressure suction-curettage group, but no statistical difference was found. The difference in the recurrence rate and complication rate between the groups did not reach significance.

Conclusions: Microwave-based therapy is a noninvasive treatment with durable effects, low risks, shorter downtime, good appearance, and high satisfaction for axillary hyperhidrosis and bromhidrosis.

微波疗法与负压吸脂术治疗腋窝多汗症和狐臭的比较：回顾性分析

背景：腋窝多汗症和狐臭是临床常见病，影响患者的工作和生活。负压吸引-刮除法是目前最流行的治疗方法，但受到一种新型微波疗法（MiraDry）的挑战。我们打算比较这两种疗法的安全性和有效性：我们对 39 名患有原发性多汗症和狐臭的女性患者进行了回顾性分析。17名患者接受了MiraDry治疗，22名患者接受了负压吸引-刮除治疗。术后随访项目包括汗液和气味评估、满意度测量、安全性评估以及12个月前不同时间点的复发评估：结果：与基线相比，两种治疗方法在 6 个月和 12 个月时的 HDSS 评分和气味水平都有明显降低（P < 0.05）。两组之间的相对降低幅度无明显差异。微波治疗组的满意度评分高于负压吸引-刮宫组，但未发现统计学差异。两组的复发率和并发症发生率差异无显著性：微波疗法是一种无创治疗方法，对腋下多汗症和狐臭具有疗效持久、风险低、停工期短、外观好、满意度高等优点。
