ERRATUMSurgical treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis by suction-curettage of sweat glands

There was a mistake in the publication of Chart 4 of the article "Surgical treatment of axillary hyperhidrosis by suction-curettage of sweat glands", published in journal 89(6). The topics in Chart 4 refer to Figure 3 and not Figure 2. Follows the corrected text:

1-	Skin thickness - thin and easy to pinch (Figure 3A)
2-	Skin coloration - pale to violet; petechiae may be seen (Figure 3B)
3-	Complete elevation of axillary skin from subcutaneous cellular tissue
4-	'Skin to skin' rolling, showing that there is no more fat adhering to the dermis
5-	Palpable hair follicles during 'skin to skin' rolling;
6-	'Sipping' sounds caused by the cannula
7-	Visualization of the skin being sucked through the holes of the cannula in use (Figure 3C)
8-	Axillary hair can be easily detached when gently pulled by the surgeon. (Figures 3D and 3E)
