Abstract
Eyelid lymphedema is a rare condition that presents as persistent swelling and non-pitting edema of the eyelids. Treatment options for this disease are limited, including surgical debulking and medications, which do not achieve complete resolution. Few studies have demonstrated the use of lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) in the preauricular area for eyelid lymphedema treatment. In this report, we demonstrate the successful treatment of primary eyelid lymphedema by performing multiple LVAs in the periorbital region, where dermal backflow was visualized using indocyanine green lymphography. A total of four LVAs were performed through two separate incisions at the lateral canthal area and lateral eyebrow in a patient with unilateral upper eyelid lymphedema that resulted in significant improvement without recurrence.
