Summary

This study looked at how breast cancer-related lymphedema (arm swelling) affects the way women walk. Researchers compared 40 women with lymphedema to healthy volunteers, measuring arm swelling, shoulder movement, grip strength, and walking patterns. The goal was to understand if lymphedema causes changes in gait, which could help improve rehabilitation strategies.
