One year prior to admission, he had felt pain and/or paresthesias in his left anterior chest, left shoulder area and left periaxillar area, which corresponded to involvement of dermatomes in T1{\textendash}T3. He was diagnosed with Horner{\textquoteright}s syndrome caused by lung tumour, which was located at the apical posterior wall along with the second to fourth ribs. The tumour interrupted sympathetic neurons at the T1{\textendash}T4 level. The degree of hypohydrosis was successfully evaluated by the starch{\textendash}iodine technique, dermal thermography and a skin surface hygrometer. After radiation therapy, hypohydrosis and pain or paresthesias improved partially, and he was discharged uneventfully.}, URL = {https://casereports.bmj.com/content/2013/bcr-2013-009732}, eprint = {https://casereports.bmj.com/content/2013/bcr-2013-009732.full.pdf}, journal = {Case Reports} }
