Clinical Trial Summary

This study aimed to determine the impact on outcomes when recipient veins with reflux were used for LVA for the treatment of unilateral lower limb lymphedema.


Description:

The use of recipient veins with reflux for lymphaticovenous anastomosis (LVA) is discouraged because of the common belief that it may lead to venous-lymphatic reflux (VLR), a phenomenon in which venous blood is refluxed into the lymphatic lumen after anastomosis, which can lower the long-term patency rate. However, this concept has yet to be validated.
