Medical News Today is pleased to announce the launch of a new Lymphology / Lymphedema channel. The section will include news on lymphology, lymphatic filariasis (elephantiasis), lymphedema (lymphoedema). Lymphedema is swelling caused by a problem with the lymphatic system, either through abnormal development (primary lymphedema) or caused by damage or trauma (secondary lymphedema).
