Lymphedema of the hand following a fracture of the distal radius.

Abstract

A case of chronic lymphedema of the hand and forearm following a fracture of the distal radius is reported. None of the classic causes of secondary lymphedema appeared to be the cause. A strong psychogenic component appeared to be the underlying mechanism. This rare phenomenon was thought to be self-induced and not genetic in nature.
