  • Lymphovenous bypass surgery is performed for the treatment of upper limb lymphedema in breast cancer patients.
  • The goal of  lymphatic bypass surgery is to improve lymphatic function in the limb(s) in patients with lymphedema.

Lymphovenous bypass surgery is performed by NYC surgeon by creating small incisions (approximately one to two centimeters in length) in the skin where the lymphatic channels can be visualized (with a special microscope) intersecting with small veins.

This procedure may be performed using general anesthesia or sedation. Patients typically recover very quickly; the procedure may take no more than a few hours  from arrival to discharge. Compression garments and massage therapy may be prescribed after discharge.
