Özet
Lenfödem, proteinden zengin interstisyel sıvının deri ve deri altı dokuda birikmesidir. On üç yaşında erkek hasta iki alt ekstremite ve skrotum ödemi şikayetiyle kliniğimize başvurdu. Hastanın tıbbi öyküsünden bir yaşındayken primer lenfödem tanısı konulduğu belirlendi. Sol alt ekstremite ve skrotuma lenf drenajı uygulaması ve bandajlama yapıldı. Sağ alt ekstremite için tedavi bitimine kadar hastaya varis çorabı giyilmesi önerildi. Birinci aşamada ödemi azaltmak için manuel lenf drenajı, cilt bakımı ve bandajlama uygulanırken, ikinci aşamada kompresyon çorabı ile tedavi desteklendi. On iki seanslık tedavi sonucunda ödemde önemli ölçüde ve hızlı bir azalma elde edildi. Tedavi öncesi ve sonrası çevre ölçümleri incelendiğinde, özellikle skrotumda olumlu değişimler izlendi.
Lymphedema is the accumulation of interstitial fluid rich in proteins in the skin and subcutaneous tissues. A 13-year-old boy was admitted to our clinic with the complaint of edema in both lower extremities and scrotum. His medical history revealed that he was diagnosed with primary lymphedema when he was one year old. Left lower extremity and scrotal lymphatic drainage and bandaging were made. The patient was advised to wear compression stockings to his right lower extremity until the end of the treatment. At the first stage, manual lymph drainage was applied to reduce edema, and skin care and bandages were applied, while in the second stage, treatment was supported with compression stockings. A significant and rapid reduction in edema was obtained after 12 treatment sessions. When the circumference measurements before and after treatment were evaluated, an improvement was observed, particularly in the scrotum.
