AB  - It  is  estimated  that  at  least  3  million  Americans  suffer  from  lymphedema,  with  a  significant  proportion  developing  the  disease  after  surgery  and/or  radiation  therapy  for  various  cancers.  Its  onset  can  be  sudden  or  gradual,  and  may  be  present  in  the  extremities,  trunk,  head  and  neck,  external  genitalia,  and  internal  organs.  In  some  cases  it  develops  after  trauma  or  deep  vein  thrombosis,  while  in  others  it  occurs  without  obvious  cause  at  different  stages  in  life.1
