A RATIONAL APPROACH TO THE MANAGEMENT OF LYMPHEDEMA

Author: C Campisi ( )

Abstract

Because of the complexity of peripheral lymphedema disorders and the variability in severity and clinical appearance, no standardized management plan of these patients is universally accepted. Based on our lengthy experience, we attempt in this report to outline a protocol for "staging" and managing lymphedema including the role of microsurgical lymphatic angioplastic shunts.
