Abstract: The aim of this study is to assess the incidence and risk factors for lym phedema in women submitted to mastectomy, with or without breast reconstruction. Methods: A cohort study was performed on women submitted to mastectomy with axillary lym phadenectomy in a single center. The follow-up included clinical evaluation and arm column measurements before surgery, at 30 days, 6 months, 5 years, and 10 years after surgery. For women subjected to late reconstruction, the time of occurrence of lymphedema (before or af ter reconstruction) was observed.
