New surgery could stop debilitating swelling for breast cancer survivors
NCT ID NCT05970107
Summary
This study is testing if a special microsurgery, called lymphaticovenous bypass (LVB), can prevent a painful and chronic side effect called lymphedema. Lymphedema is arm swelling that affects up to 40% of people after breast cancer surgery to remove lymph nodes. The trial will compare standard surgery to standard surgery plus the new bypass procedure in 400 patients to see which group develops less swelling.
