In this case, we present a case of lower-limb lymphedema which was managed by this procedure where a supraclavicular LN was harvested and transferred to the lower leg. VLNT from the supraclavicular region is a very effective treatment for physiological restoration of the lymphatic flow in established cases of lower-limb lymphedema because of well-hidden favorable scar and minimal chances of secondary iatrogenic lymphedema in the donor region unlike other sites such as groin and axilla. The VLNT should be preferred over manual lymphatic drainage because it is very effective treatment for physiological restoration of the lymphatic flow, however, the further analytical studies are required to confirm statistically the effectiveness of the same over other modalities.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/ijabmr.ijabmr_207_21","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,31]],"date-time":"2022-01-31T04:36:34Z","timestamp":1643603794000},"page":"57-60","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1097\/lww.0000000000001000","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Free Vascularized Supraclavicular Autologous Heterotopic Lymph Node Transfers Without Skin Paddle for Lymphedema Lower Limb"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Mohd Altaf","family":"Mir","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"AJ","family":"Praveen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Rajesh Kumar","family":"Maurya","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"209S","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0000000000002683","article-title":"Lymphedema: Surgical and medical therapy","volume":"138","author":"Chang","year":"2016","journal-title":"Plast Reconstr Surg"},{"key":"R2-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1475","DOI":"10.1245\/s10434-016-5614-4","article-title":"Clinical and psychosocial outcomes of vascularized lymph node transfer for the treatment of upper extremity lymphedema after breast cancer therapy","volume":"24","author":"Gratzon","year":"2017","journal-title":"Ann Surg Oncol"},{"key":"R3-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"73","DOI":"10.1007\/s10549-016-3716-0","article-title":"A randomized control study of treating secondary stage II breast cancer-related lymphoedema with free lymph node transfer","volume":"156","author":"Dionyssiou","year":"2016","journal-title":"Breast Cancer Res Treat"},{"key":"R4-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1612","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0b013e3182a97edc","article-title":"Comparison of indocyanine green lymphographic findings with the conditions of collecting lymphatic vessels of limbs in patients with lymphedema","volume":"132","author":"Hara","year":"2013","journal-title":"Plast Reconstr Surg"},{"key":"R5-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e0168259","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pone.0168259","article-title":"Lymph node transplantation decreases swelling and restores immune responses in a transgenic model of lymphedema","volume":"11","author":"Huang","year":"2016","journal-title":"PLoS One"},{"key":"R6-13-20240902","first-page":"138","article-title":"Microsurgical Procedures: Vascularized lymph node transfer from the submental region","volume":"13","author":"Cheng","year":"2015","journal-title":"Principles and Practice of Lymphedema Surgery"},{"key":"R7-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1878","DOI":"10.1097\/00006534-199706000-00011","article-title":"The fasciocutaneous supraclavicular artery island flap for releasing postburn mentosternal contractures","volume":"99","author":"Pallua","year":"1997","journal-title":"Plastic and reconstructive surgery"},{"key":"R8-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1079e","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0000000000001253","article-title":"Lymphedema of the upper extremity following supraclavicular lymph node harvest","volume":"135","author":"Lee","year":"2015","journal-title":"Plast Reconstr Surg"},{"key":"R9-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"4","DOI":"10.4103\/0970-0358.53005","article-title":"A study of the use of the supraclavicular artery flap for resurfacing of head, neck, and upper torso defects","volume":"42","author":"Telang","year":"2009","journal-title":"Indian J Plast Surg"},{"key":"R11-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"78","DOI":"10.1002\/jso.24374","article-title":"Vascularized lymph node transfer from thoracodorsal axis for congenital and post filarial lymphedema of the lower limb","volume":"115","author":"Venkatramani","year":"2017","journal-title":"J Surg Oncol"},{"key":"R12-13-20240902","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"135","DOI":"10.1002\/micr.1025","article-title":"Long-term results after lymphatic-venous anastomoses for the treatment of obstructive lymphedema","volume":"21","author":"Campisi","year":"2001","journal-title":"Microsurgery"}],"container-title":["International Journal of Applied &amp;
