Abstract
A new technique for the extraperitoneal removal of the lumbar sympathetic nerves is described. The entire operation is performed through a muscle-splitting incision which makes it possible to get the patients out of bed in from three to five days. The exposure is adequate for the removal of the entire lumbar chain and the entire operation can be performed very rapidly. We feel that the operation is far superior to any heretofore described because it offers better exposure, a rapid removal of the sympathetic nerves, no danger of hernia formation and is apparently without any except incidental mortality.
