Lymphedema affects 3-58% of survivors of breast cancer and can result in upper extremity impairments. Exercise can be beneficial in managing lymphedema. Yoga practice has been minimally studied for its effects on breast cancer related lymphedema (BCRL). The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of yoga on arm volume, quality of life (QOL), self-reported arm function, and hand grip strength in women with BCRL. Six women with BCRL participated in modified Hatha yoga 3×/week for 8 weeks. Compression sleeves were worn during yoga sessions. Arm volume, QOL, self-reported arm function, and hand grip strength were measured at baseline, half-way, and at the conclusion of yoga practice. Arm volume significantly decreased from baseline (2423.3 ml ± 597.2) to final measures (2370.8 ml ± 577.2) (p = .02). No significant changes in QOL (p = .12), self-reported arm function (p = .34), or hand grip strength (p = .26) were found. Yoga may be beneficial in the management of lymphedema.
淋巴水肿影响3%至58%的乳腺癌幸存者，并可能导致上肢功能障碍。运动有助于控制淋巴水肿。关于瑜伽练习对乳腺癌相关淋巴水肿（BCRL）的影响，相关研究极少。本研究的目的是确定瑜伽对BCRL女性患者手臂体积、生活质量（QOL）、自我报告的手臂功能和握力的影响。六名BCRL女性患者每周进行3次改良哈他瑜伽练习，共持续8周。瑜伽课程期间佩戴压力袖套。在基线、练习中期和瑜伽练习结束时测量手臂体积、QOL、自我报告的手臂功能和握力。手臂体积从基线时的（2423.3毫升±597.2）显著降至最终测量值（2370.8毫升±577.2）（p = 0.02）。未发现QOL（p = 0.12）、自我报告的手臂功能（p = 0.34）或握力（p = 0.26）有显著变化。瑜伽可能有助于管理淋巴水肿。
