Abstract EN
Lymphedema is a chronic, progressive, and often debilitating condition.
Primary lymphedema is a lymphatic malformation developing during the later stage of lymph angiogenesis.
Secondary lymphedema is the result of obstruction or disruption of the lymphatic system, which can occur as a consequence of tumors, surgery, trauma, infection, inflammation, and radiation therapy.
Here, we report a 64-year-old woman presenting with hyperkeratosis, a lymphedema due to metastatic uterus carcinoma.
In this paper, we present the effects of complex decongestive physiotherapy on lymphedema and hyperkeratosis.
