milroy's disease - congenital lymphedema
Definition for Milroy's disease
Lymphedema is characterized by swelling of the soft tissue secondary to obstruction of lymphatic drainage.
more
Lymphedema is characterized by swelling of the soft tissue secondary to obstruction of lymphatic drainage. Lymphatic obstruction causes an increase in the protein content of the extravascular tissue with subsequent retention of water. The increase in the extravascular protein stimulates proliferation of fibroblasts, organization of the fluid, and development of a "woody feeling" nonpitting swelling of the affected extremity. Fibrosis also obstructs the lymphatic channels and leads to increased protein concentration in the tissues, continuing this cycle. Lymphedema opens channels in the integument and allows bacteria to enter the subcuticular space, which overwhelms host defenses and leads to cellulitis of the extremity.
