The early diagnostics is an earnest of successful operation
RF neuromodulation implicate the treatment of patient’s tissues by high-frequency electrical signals in RF range through electrode for the destruction and modulation of nerves that can conduct pain impulses. Used in modern pain therapy RH techniques is divided to mono-, bi- and pulse RF neuromodulation, based on the general characteristics concerning some physical or clinical features.
The RF neuromodulation techniques have wide application in the treatment of numerous pain syndromes (trigeminal neuralgia, back pain, facet syndrome, intercostal neuralgia, complex regional pain syndrome, coccygodynia and many others).
The efficiency of RH neuromodulation in international practice of pain therapy aroused the heightened interest and argued the necessity of its introduction in the domestic medicine conditions. The surgeon will be able to select the most effective technique for resolve of the problem and to explain all details and nuances of procedure only after accurate determination of your desires and result expectations.

The thoracoscopiс sympathectomy is a mini-invasive endoscopic procedure under general anesthesia that conducted with videomonitoring of sympathetic trunk, predominately in chest region. The aim of this procedure is controlled decrease of a sympathetic nervous system activity in the pathological hyperactivity state.
Currently thoracoscopiс sympathectomy with success used in treatment of different cardiac rhythm disorders (LOQT Syndrome), upper extremity peripheral nerve injuries (complex regional pain syndrome); as a therapeutic method for palmar hyperhidrosis, facial flushing from stress (blushing syndrome), vasospastic acrocyanosis; in treatment of upper-extremity blood supply disorders (Raynaud’s disease, obliterating endarteritis, post-thrombotic distal occlusion), at cancer pain syndrome (pancreatic cancer) and numerous other pathologies. At the current state of endoscopic surgery the thoracoscopiс sympathectomy provided the high efficiency and expected results in therapeutic pattern of these diseases.
