Summary

This study looked at whether adding a special type of physiotherapy after lymphovenous anastomosis surgery helps people with lymphedema more than physiotherapy alone. Lymphedema is a condition where fluid builds up and causes swelling, often after cancer treatment. The study involved 26 adults with lymphedema from cancer, comparing those who had surgery plus physiotherapy to those who only had physiotherapy. The goal was to see if the combination reduced swelling, improved quality of life, and increased satisfaction.
