Description: Lymphedema doesn’t exist in a vacuum, and neither should our clinical reasoning. This dynamic webinar explores the many conditions that mimic or complicate lymphedema, from venous insufficiency to systemic contributors that can cloud diagnosis and delay effective care. Participants will gain insight into overlapping pathologies that can make lymphedema management more complex and learn strategies to improve differential diagnosis and treatment outcomes. Whether you are new to the field or a seasoned clinician, this session will sharpen your clinical lens and elevate your approach to challenging cases.
Objective: By the end of this session, participants will be able to analyze differential diagnoses and comorbid conditions that contribute to or complicate lymphedema, differentiate overlapping pathologies, and formulate clinical reasoning strategies to enhance assessment precision and optimize treatment outcomes.
