1. Stage 1 Lipedema Fat
Swelling resolves with rest/elevation
2. Stage 2 Lipedema Peau' d' orange
Easy bruising
Less resolution w/ rest and elevation
3. Stage 3 Lipedema Fibrosclerosis- hard connective tissue
LARGE mass of skin
Swelling doesn't recede
4. Stage 4 Lipedema Fibrosclerosis/Elephantitis
LARGER Masses of skin overhang
LIPO-LYMPHEDEMA (becomes lymphedema at this stage)
5. Columnar pants column like swelling with lipedema
6. Harem pants (pantaloons) like princess Jazmine pants in Aladin lipedema
7. jodhpurs (riding breeches) big hips and smaller calfs lipedema
8. Lymphedema Stage 0 AKA Subclinical or Latent Stage
9. Lymphedema Stage 0 -No swelling
Characteristics -Reduced TC and functional reserve
-Normal tissue consistency but US can reveal changes
-May have heaviness, achiness, warmth (Transient symptoms)
-Education/prevention
10. Lymphedema Stage 1 AKA Reversible Stage
11. Lymphedema Stage 1 -Pitting edema that goes down w/ elevation or treatment
Characteristics heavy, aching, fatigued
-Puffy

Goal-reduce edema
- negative or borderline stemmer sign
12. Lymphedema Stage 2 AKA Spontaneously Irreversible Stage
13. Lymphedema Stage 2 -FIBROSIS
Characteristics -Hard, lumpy, thickened, sludgy tissue
-Non-pitting.
-Edema that can be partially reduced or is irreversible
-Prone to infections
14. Lymphedema Stage 3 AKA Elephantiasis or
Sclerotic Lymphedema
15. Lymphedema Stage 3 -SECONDARY SKIN CHANGES
Characteristics -Trigger is infection/cellulitis
-Skin folds/distorted shapes
-Severe skin changes- papillomatosis, hyperkeratosis, lichenifica-
tion, hyperpigmentation
16. Initial Lymphatics AKA Lymph Plexus
initial lymph collectors
initial lymph vessels
17. Initial Lymphatics Charac- LOCATED: Just under epitheal layer of epidermis and in the suben-
terisitics dothelial lining of mucous membranes
-LARGER THAN BCs
-PICK UP LLs
-Irregular lumen with a discontinuous basement membrane of a
single layer of flat oak leaf in shape LECs
18. PRE-COLLECTORS -FOUND in- superficial portions of the dermis & end at the collectors
in the subcutaneous tissue
, CLT LANA EXAM PREP
Study online at https://quizlet.com/_967dg8
-CONNECT initial lymphatics to collectors
-Has some smooth muscle and some valves
-Has some open junctions
19. COLLECTORS Bring lymph to Lnn and trunks
HAVE DEVELOPED VALVES
Run parallel and bring lymph fluid distal to proximal
Deep collectors draining the deeper tissues & organs
Superficial collectors drain the skin or superficial tissue
3 LAYERS
Intima- endothelial cells and a basal membrane.
Media- Smooth muscle cells and elastic fibers.
Adventia- Collagen fibers and other cells (macrophages, neurons,
and dendritic cells)
Have open junctions in wall of the collectors allowing for a minimal
amount of solutes to escape,
like proteins.
20. Lymphatic Trunks Drain into larger vessels located in deep fascia and or organs
Has valves and structure like collectors but with thicker media layer
6 main ones- gastrointestinal, lumbar, parasternal, supraclavicular,
subclavian, and jugular
Main two-thoracic and right lymphatic duct
21. Lymph Nodes
