Single Lymphaticovenular Anastomosis for Early-Stage Lower Extremity Lymphedema Treated by the Superior-Edge-of-the-Knee Incision Method
Background Surgical treatment of lower extremity lymphedema (LEL) remains challenging. Application of the superior-edge-of-the-knee incision method for lymphaticovenular anastomosis (LVA) is reported to have a strong therapeutic effect in patients with LEL because lymph-to-venous flow at the anastomosis is enhanced by knee joint movement during normal walking. We investigated whether a single L...

BACKGROUND We investigate the effectiveness of lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) in releasing lymphedema-associated pain. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis. Subjects of this study included lower extremity lymphedema patients who presented persistent and constant degrees of pain in their lower limbs. LVA was performed under local anesthesia. The preoperative lower extremity pain a...

ReSultS: The most common indication for reconstruction was oncologic, followed by traumatic and congenital. Patients received an average of 5.8 implants during the course of treatment. The average follow-up time was 10.6 years with a range of 6 months to 24 years. A statistically significant correlation was found between skin reaction and age (p=0.022), with younger patients more likely to deve...

Evidence-Based Answer Complete decongestive physiotherapy (i.e., a noninvasive protocol consisting of skin care, lymph drainage massage, exercises, and compression bandaging1) effectively improves edema, rates of infection, and quality of life in patients with lower-extremity lymphedema. (Strength of Recommendation [SOR]: B, based on prospective cohort studies.) Microsurgery may be effective fo...
