Lymphedema of the upper extremity following circumferential burns.

Chenicheri Balakrishnan1, Lisa M Bradt, Abdullah J Khalil, John M Trupiano.   

Abstract

Lymphedema is characterized by edema of the extremity due to the inability of the lymphatic system to remove lymph into the circulation. This condition can result from destruction of the superficial lymphatics from burn injury and recurrent infection of the extremity. Due to its rare occurrence, two cases of upper extremity lymphedema following burns are reported.
