Lymphedema is a condition that is defined as excessive protein accumulation in the interstitial space and negatively affects the quality of life of the person and causes limitations in daily living activities. Lymphedema is classified as primary and secondary lymphedema. Primary lymphedema is related to the developmental abnormality of lymph vessels and lymph nodes. Secondary lymphedema develops as a result of interruption of lymphatic pathways as a result of radiotherapy, surgical intervention, trauma, inflammation or neoplastic disorder. Secondary lymphedema is more common than primary lymphedema.

Lymphedema is a chronic condition that requires lifelong attention. Control of edema reduces disease progression and soft tissue incidence. Pressure therapy is an important part of lymphedema treatment.

Indications:

• In the treatment of primary or secondary lymphedema,
• In the edema after upper extremity surgery or trauma,
• In the Paget-von-Schrotter syndrome (Lat axilla Phlebothrombosis).
