Objective To clarofy the characteristics of immunoiogical reactions in skin tissues of non - filariallymphedema paticnts with or without skin bacterial inlection. arethods Avidin - biotin peroxidase (ABC)immunohistochemical method was used to examine the local skin tissue infiltrating inflammatory cells in 16chronic limb lymphedema patients before and after two courses of microwave and bandaging treatment. ResultsThere was a signilicant increase of T lymphocyte infiltration in lymphedematous skin tissues; after two courses ofmicrowave treatment, T lymphocyte infiltration was greatly resolved whereas the number of macrophages, whichcan lyse the stagnant proteins in lymphedematous tissues through proteolysis increased. Conclusion Microwaveand bandaging treatment can promote regression of extremity edema by reducing chronic inlammation andenhancing the stagnant protein lysis capability in lymphedematous skin tissues.
