As qualitative lymphoscintigraphic indicators, ilioinguinal lymph node uptake, main lymphatic vessel, collateral vessel, and four types of dermal backflow patterns (absent; distal only; proximal only; whole lower limb) were evaluated. Lymph node uptake ratio, extremity uptake ratio, and injection site clearance ratio were obtained as quantitative lymphoscintigraphic indicators at 1 and 2-h after injection. To evaluate therapy response, the volume difference ratio of the whole lower limb at 3\u00a0months (early response) and 1\u00a0year (late response) was measured. Volume difference ratios (continuous variable and binary variable with a cut-off value of zero) were compared according to the lymphoscintigraphic variables.<\/jats:p>\n              <\/jats:sec><jats:sec>\n                <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                <jats:p>The group with whole lower limb dermal backflow had a greater volume change than the other groups (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.047).

The rate of volume decrease at 1\u00a0year was high in patients with high 2-h extremity uptake ratio (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.027).
