Study Summary

This study will assess the impact of lymphaticovenous microanastomosis in volume reduction of postmastectomy upper extremity lymphedema. We hypothesize that multiple lymphaticovenous micro-anastomosis in the distal arm will result in the reduction of volume and improvement in quality of life of patients with post-mastectomy lymphedema

Primary Outcome

Lymphatic Volumetric Assessment. Evaluation of the volumetric change, relative to baseline measurement, in the volume of the affected limb at 3 and 6 months from the procedure.
