Özet
Lymphedema of the external genitalia is an unusual problem in countries where endemic filariasis is rarely experienced. The abnormal retention of lymphatic fluid in subcutaneous tissue as a result of lymphatic obstruction causes swelling, pain, disfigurement, difficulties in urination, and a decrease in potency. Lymphedema may be idiopathic or secondary to inflammation, surgical incision, neoplasm, radiation, hypoproteinemia, venous thrombosis, and other medical conditions.
