Japanese term

左胸部交感神経焼灼術

Japanese to English Medical Medical (general)
Anybody got a good medical dictionary? All I can find is "thoracic." What is 交感神経焼灼術?

Discussion

casey (asker) Oct 6, 2006:
I don't think it's a sympathectomy. I have 左胸部交感神経焼灼術 contrasted with 右胸部交感神経切除術. 交感神経切除術 is a symathectomy, so 交感神経焼灼術 must be something different.

cauterization of the left thoracic sympathetic nerve

This is what I found:

焼灼術: cauterization
交感神経: sympathetic nerve
左胸部: left thorax

It seems that cauterization is a method of carrying out the sympathectomy.
left thoracic sympathetic nerve cauterization

I couldn't find proper references as most of them were articles restricted access.
I'm not native english speaker, so...
Anyway
I Hope it helps
Peer comment(s):

cautery of sympathetic nerve (or sympathetic cautery) of left chest

交換神経=sympathetic
焼灼術=cautery

There was another one for 焼灼術、endoscopic electrocautery。

Hope this leads you to the right words you are looking for.
