RESUMO

El linfedema de mama (LM) secundario a cirugía tras un proceso neoplásico se manifiesta con edema o rubefacción en la zona de la mama. Presentamos 2 casos de pacientes intervenidas de cáncer de mama izquierda, hemimastectomía y linfadedectomía, que recibieron quimioterapia (QT) y radioterapia (RT) adyuvante. Fueron remitidas al Servicio de Rehabilitación (RHB) por aumento de volumen y sensación de dureza en extremidad superior izquierda (ESI) y mama. Tras objetivar el edema en la mama, tratamos el LM con taping linfático. Se las citó para revisión a la semana, y refirieron mejoría en la sensación de dureza e hinchazón en mama en la escala visual analógica (EVA). El LM es una dolencia infradiagnosticada aunque relativamente frecuente, de difícil cuantificación, y no hay descrito en la literatura un tratamiento específico. El taping linfático es una opción de tratamiento para el LM, ya que mejora la sensación subjetiva de dureza e hinchazón así como la clínica de induración y edema (AU)


Breast lymphoedema after oncological surgery is characterized by ipsilateral chest swelling and/or redness. We report the cases of 2 patients who underwent surgery for left breast cancer. Hemimastectomy and lymphadenectomy were performed, and postoperative therapy included adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy. After discharge the patients were sent to our Rehabilitation Department complaining of swelling and heaviness in the left upper extremity and breast. The patients underwent a physical examination of the breast, and the lymphoedema of the upper extremity was measured. Lymphatic taping was applied to treat the breast lymphedema. One week later, both patients reported improvement in heaviness and swelling quantified by the visual analog scale (VAS). Breast lymphoedema is a relatively common but underdiagnosed condition and is difficult to quantify. There is no reported standard treatment for this entity in the literature. Lymphatic taping is an optional treatment for breast lymphoedema as it improves the subjective feeling of heaviness and swelling, as well as induration and oedema (AU)
