Abstract
Axillary osmidrosis (AO) is a common disease, affecting patients psychologically and influencing their quality of life. The medical approach to AO remains controversial, ranging from conservative medical to surgical choices. We describe the successful treatment of AO and axillary hyperhidrosis (AH) using percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI) in a 30-year-old patient with AO and AH who did not respond to topical and systemic medication. We also describe the clinical efficacy of PEI by presenting our experience with histopathological evidence of necrosis of the sweat glands.
