Treatment of functional disorders of the upper extremity after radical mastectomy
Radical treatment of breast cancer, including combined and complex methods, in a number of cases causes complications, which in 30.2% of patients lead to disability. One of the most frequent late complications is limb edema. It should be emphasized that edema not only changes the proportions of the body, but also causes considerable discomfort, causing pain, a constant feeling of heaviness, considerable difficulty in wearing clothes, and limb dysfunction in 45% and even 100% of patients.
