BACKGROUND: Lymphedema in lower limb is one of major postoperative complications followed by a total hysterectomy with lymph node dissection. The objective of this report is to examine a long-term result of lymphaticovenous anastomosis procedure as a preventive surgery.
METHODS: Sixteen patients with endometrial cancer underwent an abdominal hysterectomy with a bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy. Just after pelvic lymph node dissection, either end-to-end or sleeve anastomosis utilizing venules and suprainguinal lymph vessels was performed. During the observation period from 4 to 13 years, the symptom of lymphedema in lower extremities has been assessed.
RESULTS: Among 16 patients, 1 presented postoperative lymphedema grade 3 (CTCAE (Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events) Ver. 4.0, 10025233) in lower limb, and a second surgery at 7 years after the first one was required. Other 6 patients showed non-severe symptoms of lymphedema, diagnosed as grade 1. The rest 9 patients did not show any symptoms of postoperative lymphedema in a long term (up to 13 years).
CONCLUSION: From the long term outcomes of our 16 cases, we propose that a direct lymphaticovenous microsurgery immediately after a hysterectomy with lymphadenectomy of external inguinal lymph node is one of the appropriate therapeutic choices to prevent severe lymphedema in lower limb.
