dc.description.abstractObjective: To evaluate the foot-health-related quality of life in individuals with versus without lower-limb lymphedema. Methods: A case-control study was carried out in an academic clinic in Lisbon, Portugal. Eighty participants (40 controls and 40 with lymphedema) were included in the study. The researchers examined sociodemographic and clinical data and foot-health-related quality of life in both groups. In the group with lymphedema, lower-limb lymphedema was also characterized. Results: Individuals with lower-limb lymphedema had significantly lower scores on all dimensions of the Foot Health Status Questionnaire in comparison with the control group. Conclusions: Individuals with lower-limb lymphedema appear to have a poorer foot-health-related quality of life than the general population.pt_PT
