Abstract
SUMMARY Lymphedema is one of the late effects of breast cancer treatment that affects many breast cancer survivors. Despite an increased focus on morbidity among this survivor population, our understanding of risk reduction, prevention, diagnosis and treatment of lymphedema remain poorly understood. This article provides an overview of the current state of the research (2009–2014) on breast cancer-related lymphedema and offers future directions for research. A greater emphasis must be placed on reducing the impact of lymphedema to improve the quality of life for breast cancer survivors.
