They consisted of 24 cases of axillary hyperhidrosis, 10 cases of axillary hy-perhidrosis combined bromidrosis, and 8 cases of bromidrosis. Results All hyperhidrosis patients a-chieved good effects. Among patients with axillary hyperhidrosis combined bromidrosis, it had effects on hyperhidrosis, but only one case effected on bromidrosis. Among patients with bromidrosis, only one case had effect. Conclusions In the treatment of hyperhidrosis, BTX-A is very useful, and side effect is temporary and slight. But for bromidrosis, BTX-A is not very useful.
