Lymphedema is a chronic disease mostly affecting women and research is sparse. To this date, longitudinal studies evaluating biopsychosocial predictors for mortality and quality of life in lymphedema are largely missing. This study aims to identify possible predictors and could open innovative ways for treatment options.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Method<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Two hundred ninety-two patients with lymphedema partaking in a rehabilitation program in a lymphedema clinic were longitudinally assessed.

We assessed a variety of potential biopsychosocial predictors of mortality and quality of life (i.e., depression, anxiety, cancer).
