Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This study aims to detect and treat early lower limb lymphedema secondary to lymphadenectomy with the aim of increasing the quality of life of patients with this chronic condition. To this end, a group of patients (treatment group) will be referred to the Rehabilitation service for a previous consultation and after surgery where lymphedema could be detected early. In addition, the usual follow-up will be carried out in Gynecology Oncology consultation (GO). In the second group, also called control, will be performed the usual follow-up in GO. For this we randomize to one of these two groups. The research project has the favorable report of the Center's Clinical Research Ethics Committee
