Incidence of and Influencing Factors for Arm Lymphedema After Salvage Treatment for an Isolated Locoregional Recurrence of Breast Cancer
CONCLUSION: Salvage treatment for LRR-induced SAL was performed in 24% of the patients. A history of initial lymphedema and salvage taxane-based chemotherapy increases the risk of developing SAL. Therefore, close surveillance for the incidence of SAL is required in patients opting for salvage treatment for LRR.PMID:37985381 | DOI:10.4048/jbc.2023.26.e43
