Lymphedema: Complete Surgical and Medical Management is one of the first books to cover the state of the field, encompassing both surgical and nonsurgical treatments. It is divided into several areas: Anatomy, Physiology, and Lymphangiogenesis Pathophysiology and Clinical Presentation Diagnosis Treatment - including surgical and pharmacologic therapy Research and Future Directions Buidling on this foundation, the text discusses diagnostic modalities, biomarkers, and differential lymph node mapping and clinical staging. It includes the history of lymphedema treatment and an overview of various.
