title: [Clinical course, diagnosis and surgical treatment of Raynaud's disease].
abstract: The work is based on the experience with treatment of 86 patients with Raynaud's disease. 41 patients were treated conservatively, in 45 patients thoracic sympathectomy was performed. All 45 patients subjected to thoracic sympathectomy showed excellent and good immediate results. Late results were favourable in 20 out of 23 operated patients, examined within the terms from 5 to 15 years postoperatively. Thus, thoracic sympathectomy is an effective method of treatment for Raynaud's disease.
