چکیده

Amaç: Lenfödem (LE), aksiller lenf nodu diseksiyonu ve radyoterapi ile tedavi edilen meme kanserli olgularda yaygın gelişen iyatrojenik bir komplikasyondur. Bu çalışmada lenfödemli hastalarda kanseri tedavisi sonrası, lenfatik sistem endotelinden salınan, homeobox transkripsiyon faktörü (Prox-1), damar endotel reseptörü-1 (LVYE-1) podoplanin (PDPN) belirteçlerinin serum düzeylerini araştırmayı amaçladık.
 Metod: Çalışmanın LE grubunu sonrası üst ekstremitede toplam 44 kadın hasta, kontrol ise demografik açıdan grubu benzer özellikler gösteren sağlıklı oluşturdu. Hastaların kol çevreleri ölçüldü her iki çevresi toplamları arasındaki fark (DSOAC) 2 cm veya ≥ %10 olarak kabul edildi. Serum Prox-1, LVYE-1 PDPN konsantrasyonları ticari ELISA (Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) ölçüldü.
 Bulgular: grubunda seviyeleri grubuna göre anlamlı düşük bulundu (sırasıyla; p < 0.01, = 0.02, 0.04). Prox-1 Evre 1 LE'li LE’li hastalara yüksekti (p

Manual lymphatic drainage for lymphedema following breast cancer treatment.

BACKGROUND More than one in five patients who undergo treatment for breast cancer will develop breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL). BCRL can occur as a result of breast cancer surgery and/or radiation therapy. BCRL can negatively impact comfort, function, and quality of life (QoL). Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD), a type of hands-on therapy, is frequently used for BCRL and often as part of ...

Comparison of intermittent pneumatic compression with manual lymphatic drainage for treatment of breast cancer-related lymphedema.

BACKGROUND The aim of this prospective controlled study was to assess the efficacy of two different combination treatment modalities of lymphedema (LE). Manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) and compression bandage combination (complex decongestive therapy) have been compared with intermittent pneumatic compression (IPC) plus self-lymphatic drainage (SLD). METHODS AND RESULTS Both MLD with compress...

Lymphatic and Angiogenic Candidate Genes Predict the Development of Secondary Lymphedema following Breast Cancer Surgery

The purposes of this study were to evaluate for differences in phenotypic and genotypic characteristics in women who did and did not develop lymphedema (LE) following breast cancer treatment. Breast cancer patients completed a number of self-report questionnaires. LE was evaluated using bioimpedance spectroscopy. Genotyping was done using a custom genotyping array. No differences were found bet...
