Lymphaticovenous anastomosis

anastomosis">Lymphaticovenous anastomosis is a medical procedure that connects lymphatic vessels to veins. This technique is used to treat conditions where the lymphatic system fails to drain fluid properly, leading to swelling, often in the arms or legs. By creating this connection, excess lymph fluid can flow into the veins, improving circulation and reducing swelling. This procedure is especially beneficial for patients with lymphedema, helping to alleviate symptoms and enhance quality of life. It is a minimally invasive technique that can provide significant relief and improve the function of the affected area.
