Treatment of axillary osmidrosis with the use of Versajet.
Axillary osmidrosis is a distressing problem. Since the secretion from apocrine glands is believed to be responsible for malodour, many treatment modalities have been developed to remove the glands. Local surgery with the excision of the apocrine glands has been proved to be most effective. We introduce the treatment of axillary osmidrosis, using Versajet (Versajet hydrosurgery system, Smith & Nephew, Memphis, TN, USA). From October 2010 to February 2012, 31 patients (21 females and 10 males) whose age ranged from 12 to 63 years were treated. All patients were followed up for 13.1 months on average. Thirty patients were very satisfied and recommended this procedure and one patient was satisfied with the result. We experienced one haematoma and one wound dehiscence. Excision of glands, using Versajet, makes the operation a simple and efficient procedure. Moreover, precise and even debridement reduces complications by preserving the skin flap and subdermal plexus.
