Introduction: Lymphoedema is a progressive, chronic, clinical sign of an abnormal accumulation of macromolecules in the interstitial space that causes a buildup of fluids. Aim: To evaluate specific data of bioimpedance such as impedance and reactance in the evolution of lymphoedema treatment. Materials and Methods: A prospective quantitative study was enrolled in the Clinica Godoy-Brazil in May 2013, on 24 patients with bilateral lower limb lymphoedema (48 legs). Bioimpedance variables (impedance and reactance) …
