Unilateral swelling of the leg is a common problem in general practice. The spectrum of underlying diseases is broad and does include venous and lymphatic disorders but also less frequent diseases such as Baker cysts and Sudeck's dystrophia. In the majority of cases a diagnosis can be made based on the patients history, the clinical findings and some specific laboratory and/or instrumental investigations. Selected cases however, require the attention of the vascular specialist.
腿部单侧肿胀是全科医疗中常见的问题。潜在疾病的范围很广，确实包括静脉和淋巴系统疾病，但也包括不太常见的疾病，如腘窝囊肿和苏戴克氏营养不良症。在大多数情况下，可根据患者病史、临床检查结果以及一些特定的实验室和/或器械检查做出诊断。然而，部分病例需要血管专科医生的关注。
