Az emlőtumorhoz társuló lymphoedema kialakulása jelentős életminőség-romlással és szövődményekkel járhat. Kialakulásában a sebészeti beavatkozás mellett szerepet játszik a kombinált terápia – sugárkezelés, kemoterápia, endokrin terápia – és egyéb olyan hatások is, melyek a nyirokfunkció további károsodását idézik elő (például sérülés, fertőzés, gyulladás vagy szisztémás betegség). Az emlőtumorhoz társuló lymphoedema a daganat kezelése után többnyire nem azonnal jelentkezik, akár évekkel később aktiválódhat, ezért különösen fontos az onkológiai gondozás részeként a nyirokoedema szűrése az időben történő diagnosztizálás és a megfelelő kezelés érdekében. A nagy rizikójú betegcsoportokban a szubklinikai vizenyő korai észlelésére irányuló prospektív surveillance program javíthatja az életminőséget. Jelenleg az emlőtumorhoz társuló lymphoedemában elsőként komplex fizioterápiás kezelés javasolt, amely a diagnózis után minél hamarabb elkezdendő. Az onkológiai rehabilitáció keretében a korai kezelés után a betegek élethosszig tartó gondozása szükséges. Áttekintésünkben bemutatjuk az emlőtumorhoz társuló lymphoedema patofiziológiáját, konzervatív kezelését és a terápia új irányait. Orv Hetil. 2022; 163(23): 902–910.
