Article Synopsis
- The study aimed to compare gynecologic cancer survivors with and without lymphedema symptoms regarding their physical function, quality of life, body image, and levels of distress, while also checking how many received rehabilitation post-treatment.
- Results showed that survivors with lymphedema experienced significantly lower quality of life, reduced physical function, and higher levels of distress, consistent across various models.
- Ultimately, the findings indicate that lower extremity lymphedema negatively impacts quality of life, limb function, emotional well-being, and body image for survivors.
