Specialist in General Surgery
Perfected in Microsurgery and Lymphology

Lymphology, in its broadest medical-scientific sense, represents more than ever before a broad medical discipline, rapidly expanding and of fundamental importance in the daily clinical practice of any health professional.

Lymph, Lymphedema, Lymphatic, Lymph node, Lymphocyte are terms in everyday use in Medicine, but too often the true function of this delicate circulation that contributes inescapably to the homeostasis of the human body and is a supporting pillar of our immune system remains neglected.

Lack of knowledge of the role of lymphatic circulation in the pathophysiology of edema is often the cause of misdiagnosis and disregarded therapeutic targets in the treatment of surgical and other patients.
