“…During aggressive removal of apocrine glands to achieve better clinical outcomes, various complications can occur, such as hematoma, seroma, skin infection, wound necrosis, skin necrosis or perforation, and scar formation. Under conditions that permit, the use of fibrin glue reduces postoperative bleeding by maintaining adjacent surfaces together, in addition to restricting capillary flow 18 . Therefore, with advances in surgical techniques, safe, proper, and accurate removal of the apocrine glands is essential 19 .…”

Background Axillary osmidrosis is a common disease with negative psychosocial impact on patients. Further, many treatment modalities are not sufficient and result in recurrence. Objective We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of using a cartilage shaver in patients with recurrent osmidrosis to remove tightly attached apocrine glands and subdermal scars. Methods We retrospectively evaluated 24 patients with secondary axillary osmidrosis who underwent cartilage shaving surgery between January 2013 and May 2022. We analyzed the incidence of complications, including seroma, infection, pigmentation, wound dehiscence, skin necrosis, scarring, shoulder movement limitation, comedones/sebaceous cysts, and nerve injury. Clinical effectiveness was also evaluated. Results Excellent or good efficacy with improved malodor was achieved in 24 patients (47 axillae [100%]). Complications were observed in 16 (36.17%) axillae, including hematomas (n = 2), pigmentation (n = 7), skin necrosis (n = 3), and comedones/sebaceous cysts (n = 4); one patient (2.13%) required local debridement. Mean Vancouver Scar Scale scores were markedly low (5.41 to 4.67). Scar tissue did not interfere with the shaving surgery, allowing for successful removal of the apocrine glands. Conclusions Secondary osmidrosis treatment using a cartilage shaver system yielded satisfactory and better scar results than the patients' previous treatments.
