Patient-reported lymphedema after sentinel lymph node mapping in women with low-grade endometrial cancer
Women with low-grade endometrial cancer have a low risk of lymphedema after sentinel lymph node mapping. Leg swelling at baseline and body mass index predicted more lymphedema at 12 months after surgery. Early lymphedema at 3 months predicted persistent lymphedema. A high leg lymphedema score at 12 months is associated with impairment in several aspects of quality of life.
