The prevalence of undiagnosed postoperative lower limb lymphedema among gynecological oncology patients.

Objective: Lower limb lymphedema (LLL) is a common postoperative complication among gynecological oncology patients following lymph node resection. In the absence of a screening strategy, LLL is frequently diagnosed only through patient's self-reported symptoms. This study investigated the prevalence of undiagnosed postoperative LLL among gynecological oncology patients and identified the associated risk factors.
