Everolimus for subependymal giant cell astrocytoma: 5-year final analysis.

abstract：:We describe the cases of eight patients with chronic idiopathic anhidrosis. These patients were heat intolerant and became hot, flushed, dizzy, dyspneic, and weak but did not sweat when the ambient temperature was high or when they exercised. Four patients had preganglionic sudomotor lesions and in the remaining 4 the...
