New Research on Chest and Breast Lymphedema |

Tammy Mondry and Peter Johnstone, "How I Do It:
Manual Lymphatic Drainage for Lymphedema Limited to
the Breast"
A friend recently sent us the best article we've seen
yet on the treatment of chest and breast lymphedema.
It acknowledges the existence of breast and chest
lymphedema as a common side effect of breast
conservation therapy, and it also provides a detailed
clinical discussion of the highly successful MLD-based
treatment program for breast lymphedema developed
at the Naval Medical Center in San Diego.
The article can be found in the Journal of Surgical
Oncology (2002; 81:101-104).
If you have research that you've found that you'd like
to share, please email it to us at
