Lymphoedema draws together the combined expertise of a wide range of health professionals in managing this condition. Their work is soundly based on recent research into its pathology, manifestations and treatment to develop appropriate management strategies. Part of the value of this book lies in its reference to patient perspectives and how they can contribute to the most effective care. This second edition has been completely updated in line with developments in the field.
