Hand Perfusion in Patients with Physiological or Pathological Allen's Tests.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Lymphedema leads to early deposition of adipose tissue. This may explain why conservative therapies such as complex decongestive therapy (CDT) and controlled compression therapy (CCT), as well as various forms of microsurgical reconstructions, cannot completely remove the excess volume in patients with a lar...
