چکیده
RESULTS: A total of 315 patients were identified, of which 34.3% underwent lumpectomy, 17.1% underwent mastectomy alone, while 48.6% underwent mastectomy and reconstruction. Lymphedema was diagnosed in 9.2% (n=19) of mastectomy patients and 27.8% (n=30) of lumpectomy patients. Removing >10 nodes in the both the mastectomy (OR=11.4, p=.000) and lumpectomy (OR=5.51, p=.034) cohort was predictive for lymphedema development. Neoadjuvant radiotherapy was predictive for lymphedema in the mastectomy cohort (OR=6.15, p=.015). Age, BMI, adjuvant radiotherapy, chemotherapy and positive axillary nodes were not predictive of lymphedema development in either group.
