- W2741051089 abstract "ABSTRACT Objective: to evaluate the importance of treatment of deformities caused by massive localized lymphedema (MLL) in theseverely obese. Methods: in a period of seven years, nine patients with morbid obesity and a mean age of 33 years underwentsurgical resection of massive localized lymphedema with primary synthesis. This is a retrospective study on the surgical technique,complication rates and improved quality of life. Results: all patients reported significant improvement after surgery, with greaterrange of motion, ambulation with ease and more effective hygiene. Histological analysis demonstrated the existence of a chronicinflammatory process marked by lymphomonocitary infiltrate and severe tissue edema. We observed foci of necrosis, formationof microabscesses, points of suppuration and local fibrosis organization, and pachydermia. The lymphatic vessels and some bloodcapillaries were increased, depicting a framework of linfangiectasias. Conclusion: surgical treatment of MLL proved to beimportant for improving patients’ quality of life, functionally rehabilitating them and optimizing multidisciplinary follow-up ofmorbid obesity, with satisfactory surgical results and acceptable complication rates, demonstrating the importance of treatmentand awareness about the disease.Key words: Lymphedema.
