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.

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2007 Lymphedema is a chronic, debilitating condition that has traditionally been seen as refractory or incurable. Recent years have brought new advances in the study of lymphedema pathophysiology, as well as diagnostic and therapeutic tools that are changing this perspective.To provide a systematic approach to evaluating and managing patients with ...

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

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

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 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.

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
