  • Title: [Lymphostasis of the lower extremities following the radiation or combined treatment of malignant tumors].
    Author: Khalmosh L, Bardychev MS.
    Journal: Med Radiol (Mosk); 1985 Oct; 30(10):34-8. PubMed ID: 4058276.
    Abstract:
    The authors analysed the results of a lymphatic and phlebographic study of 76 patients with lymphostasis of the lower limbs, I-IV degree, developing at varying time after combined modality (50 patients) or radiation therapy (26 patients) of malignant tumors, mainly pelvic and peritoneal. Lymphostasis development was determined by injury to the lymphatic collectors only or their combination with injury to the major veins. Therapeutic tactics should be selected taking account of the nature to injury of the lymphatic and venous vessels, the state of the compensatory mechanisms and the degree of compensation of the lymph- and blood outflow.
