Dermatologic Therapy, 2012
The basic principle of the management of lymphedema is so called complex decongestive physical therapy. This therapy is divided into two phases: (i) edema reduction phase--an initial intensive treatment phase aiming for limb volume reduction; and (ii) maintenance phase--following long-term phase to sustain a manageable limb volume.

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.

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 of the extremities is well documented in the literature. We present a case of lymphedema involving the face of a 27-year-old man and discuss the clinical presentation, microscopic findings, and surgical treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first such case report in the literature.

Cancer, 1998
Before the treatment of arm lymphedema after breast carcinoma treatment with complex decongestive physiotherapy can be initiated, it is mandatory to differentiate between benign and malignant forms (due to relapse) and to establish the diagnosis of accompanying diseases, if present.In benign lymphedemas, the aim of complex decongestive physiotherapy is

To the Editor.— In regard to the question asked in "Management of Chronic Lymphedema in a Young Man" by L. George Hershey, DO (241:1625, 1979), I was distressed with the final answer by David I. Abramson, MD. There is adequate evidence that it takes pressures of between 20 to 30 mm Hg to keep lymphedema under control, and this is similar to work done
