The lower limbs lymphedema was observed in 19.1% of cases in the control group and in 2.1% in the experimental group (p <0.05). According to the Moka test data, cognitive impairment level at the end of the study was 24.02 (17-30, CI: = 22.5-25.54) in the control group and 26.85 (19-30, CI: = 26.0 - 27.64) in the experimental group (p <0.05). The cognitive impairment subjective signs were significantly higher in the control group (p <0.05) as well. The anxiety level at the end of the study was 7.022 (1-19, CI: = 5.91-8.13) in the experimental group and 11.02 (4-22, CI: = 9.83-12.22) in the control group (p <0.05). At the end of the study, the following depression levels were obtained: 12.43 (5 - 21; CI: = 11.23 - 13.64) and 7.69 (1 -14; CI: = 6.77 - 8.62) in the control and the experimental group respectively (p <0.05). At the end of the study, deep vein thrombosis was observed in 21 patients in the control group (44.7%) and 7 patients in the experimental group (15.22%) (p <0.05). One patient from the control group had PATE. According to EORTC QLQ-C30, the quality of life and socialization level was significantly higher in the experimental group, while fatigue level was lower.
