Effects of Combined Upper Extremity Exercise and Pneumatic Compression Therapy on Breast Cancer-Related Lymphedema: A Prospective Single-Group Pilot Study

Обзор

Breast cancer is one of the most common cancers among women worldwide. With advances in treatment, survival rates have steadily increased; however, postoperative complications continue to affect patients' quality of life, with upper extremity lymphedema being among the most prevalent. Breast cancer related lymphedema (BCRL) can result in arm swelling, pain, restricted mobility, and psychological distress, all of which negatively impact daily functioning and social partici pation . Previous studies have demonstrated that regular and moderate upper extremity exercise does not exacerbate lymphedema; instead, it may improve shoulder mobility, muscular strength, and contribute to edema control. In addition, therapeutic modalities such as pneumatic compression pumps and manual lymphatic drainage have been proven effective in reducing swelling and enhancing patient comfort . Recent systema tic reviews further support the beneficial effects of exercise interventions on upper limb function and quality of life in breast cancer survivors. Therefore, combining upper extremity exercise with pneumatic compression therapy may re present a promising integrative intervention to improve lymphedema and related functional limitations. This study aims to investigate the effects of such a combined approach on breast cancer patients with lymphedema by comparing outcomes across multiple ti me points, including arm circumference measurements, shoulder range of motion, upper extremity function (DASH), and quality of life (FACT B), with the goal of establishing a more comprehensive rehabilitation model.
