Stewart-Treves syndrome, a rare cancer complication of chronic lymphedema, can arise after breast cancer treatment or other causes. This study reports three cases, highlighting clinical details and therapeutic approaches for this dangerous condition.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Vascular Surgery
  • Dermatology

Background:

  • Chronic lymphedema is a significant risk factor for developing secondary malignancies.
  • Stewart-Treves syndrome, a lymphangiosarcoma, is the most dangerous complication, typically associated with chronic lymphedema post-mastectomy and irradiation for breast carcinoma.
  • Lymphangiosarcomas arising from other causes of chronic lymphedema are exceptionally rare.
