| pubmed-article:12846356 | pubmed:abstractText | Secondary lymphoedema of the leg can result in disruption of lymphatic vessels following lymph node surgery. Evidence supports the use of complex decongestive physiotherapy (CDP) in such cases, despite the possibility of tumour recurrence due to this therapy in cancer patients. We present the case of a 52-year-old woman who developed in-transit metastases and systemic evaluable disease one month after starting CDP for secondary lymphoedema of the leg. | lld:pubmed |
