- Abstract
genital lymphedema is a rare condition but it substantially impairs quality of life. Isolated genital lymphedema can occur, frequently it is together with lymphedema of the lower extremities. Genital lymphedema is classified as primary or secondary disorder. The investigation includes history, blood tests, venereology testing, lymphoscintigraphy, X-ray of the lungs, MRI, colonoscopy, skin biopsy. The therapy is a conservative, surgical or combined therapy. The conservative therapy is the complex decongesive therapy which is more difficult due to the localisation. The most common surgical therapy is the resectional procedure of the abdomen wall, scrotum, penis or vulva.
