[Lymphedema in patients treated with sirolimus: 15 cases].

CONCLUSION: Sirolimus is associated with upper and/or lower limb lymphedema, without predominance of sex, and without disappearance after sirolimus discontinuation. Pathophysiological mechanisms remain unclear. Lymphedema management is based on low-stretch bandages and compression. PMID: 29752013 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
