Results from a Workshop on Breast Cancer Treatment-related Lymphedema and Lymphedema Resource Guide

By: Jeanne A. Petrek,American Cancer Society

Lymphedema, an informative handbook from the American Cancer Society, provides a practical overview for managing lymphedema, a complication that sometimes occurs after breast cancer treatments. Lymphedema serves as an up-to-date resource reviewing what it is, how and why it occurs, how to manage it, and how to find other resources and credible web sites.

To better explain lymphedema management, the handbook also includes photographs and illustrations, demonstrating techniques of massage, wrapping, and exercises. Quotes from lymphedema experts also complement the book.
