INTRODUCTION: After ilioinguinal @entity1600 ( @entity1600 ), the therapy for @entity292 constitutes a challenge. Risk factors for the genesis of @entity292 have not been sufficiently evaluated. We investigated possible factors that could influence the development of @entity292 in @entity1 suffering from @entity320 after iloinguinal @entity1600 . @entity1 AND METHODS: The analysis was related to @entity1 with intransit and lymphonodal metastasised @entity320 of the lower limb, who underwent @entity1600 and isolated limb perfusion (ILP). Prospective data acquisition from @entity1 undergoing ilioinguinal @entity1600 and ILP in a one-step approach was performed. The association of @entity292 to risk factors was calculated using chi-squared, linear-by-linear test and ROC curves. As possible risk factors we investigated the presence of prior surgery and @entity6 in the medical history, chemotherapeutics, @entity1 age and the body mass index (BMI). RESULTS: @entity86 occurred in 11 of 108 @entity1 (10.2%). A significant association to @entity292 was found in BMI (30.2   7.0 kg/m (2), p<0.02). Other parameters, such as prior surgery (82% vs. 71%), @entity6 (9% vs. 11.7%), chemotherapeutics and @entity1 age (mean 67.8 vs. 62.4 years) showed no influence. CONCLUSION: Our results indicate that the incidence of @entity292 after @entity1600 and ILP of @entity320 of the lower limb was associated with an increased BMI. Thus, for the prevention of lymph fistulae, an initially alternative wound-closure dressing like vacuum assisted closure (V.A.C.) dressing could be of clinical relevance for @entity28 @entity1 .
