We noted a marked improvement of lymphedema in a patient with recurrence of cancer 3 years after amputatio recti and with post-thrombotic syndrome of the leg, as the result of injection of a suspension of lymphocytes administrated as therapy against advanced cancer. Subsequently lymphocytes-injections were given 39 times to 7 patients with lymphedema of one limb, of various causes. A suspension of lymphocytes was injected repeatedly into the proximal artery of the affected limb. In one patient, lymphocytes were injected 4 times at intervals of 1 or 3 weeks. In most cases, this injection resulted in a marked reduction in the swelling of the affected limb and improvement was seen for several weeks or months. In all cases, there was a marked, continuous softening of the tissue.
我们注意到，一名患者在直肠截肢术后3年癌症复发且伴有腿部血栓后综合征，在注射淋巴细胞悬液作为晚期癌症治疗手段后，其淋巴水肿有显著改善。随后，对7例因各种原因导致单肢淋巴水肿的患者进行了39次淋巴细胞注射。将淋巴细胞悬液反复注射到患肢的近端动脉。在1例患者中，每隔1周或3周注射淋巴细胞4次。在大多数情况下，这种注射导致患肢肿胀明显减轻，且数周或数月内症状有所改善。在所有病例中，组织均有明显的持续软化。
