  schema:description "Two things have changed. Measuring the limb regularly after surgery, so that a month of compression can start before swelling is obvious, cut progression to full decongestive treatment from 19.2 to 7.9 per cent in a randomised trial. And joining lymphatics to small veins during the node operation cut new lymphoedema from 32 to 9.5 per cent, in a trial not yet finally reported."@en ;
