Lymphedema is a common, complex, and inexplicably underappreciated human disease. Despite a history of relative neglect by health care providers and by governmental health care agencies, the last decade has seen an explosive growth of insights into, and approaches to, the problem of human lymphedema.

Despite our improved knowledge of the lymphatic system, lymphedema remains an incurable disease. Its pathogenesis is still poorly understood, but fortunately the majority of patients can be satisfactorily managed by conservative means. Surgical intervention is offered only in cases of refractory disease and does not offer a surgical cure.

Lymphedema is the chronic, progressive swelling of tissue due to inadequate lymphatic function. Over time, protein-rich fluid accumulates in the tissue, causing it to enlarge. Lymphedema is a specific disease and should not be used as a generic term for an enlarged extremity. The diagnosis is made by evaluating the history and physical examination, and

Lymphedema, defined as the abnormal accumulation of protein rich fluid dysfunction of the lymphatic system, is a common sequela of cancer therapy. The incidence is highest among patients who have undergone resection and irradiation of a lymph node bed.

Lymphedema is swelling that results from the accumulation of lymph due to a malformation or obstruction of the lymphatic system. Once other causes (cardiac, renal, and hepatic) of lower extremity edema have been ruled out, categorization into primary and secondary lymphedema is undertaken.

AbstractLymphedema is often diagnosed by its characteristic clinical presentation. In some cases, however, instrumental investigations are necessary to establish the diagnosis, particularly in early stages of the disease. One of the primary problems for microsurgery in treating lymphedema consists of the discrepancy between the excellent technical ...

Lymphedema of the eyelids is a relatively rare condition whose main effect is to obstruct vision, and it is unsightly. We present 3 cases in which the edema was treated by excision and skin grafting of the eyelid, with satisfactory functional and cosmetic results. It is suggested that a split-skin graft be used for the upper eyelid and a full-thickenss

Lymphedema results from inadequate lymphatic function. Extreme obesity can cause lower extremity lymphedema, termed "obesity-induced lymphedema (OIL)." OIL is a form of secondary lymphedema that may occur once an individual's body mass index (BMI) exceeds 40. The risk of lymphatic dysfunction increases with elevated BMI and is almost universal once BMI

The clinical recognition and evaluation of congenital lymphedema of the lower extremities with abrupt onset in a 51-year-old man are reviewed. A rational, systematic approach is outlined and exemplifies the use of an interdisciplinary effort to achieve accurate diagnosis through readily available diagnostic procedures.
