Raynaud's Disease Clinical Results

This patient had a previous right digital sympathectomy that did not help much with the gangrene finger tip.  The digital sympathectomy left her with a lot of scars of the right hand and rsd pain.  She then came to Dr. Nielson and had his micro ETS surgery. Her right hand pain stopped immediately.  Her fingers warmed more than they ever had and she was ambulatory within a few hours after bilateral ETS surgery (her right digital sympathectomy took 6 hrs and left her in pain).

Her doctor who performed the digital sympathectomy on her right hand (see photos below) prior to Dr. Nielson's Micro ETS procedure said nothing more could be done for her.
