Lymphaticovenular anastomosis was performed using the contralateral healthy or less severe limb as a mirror image to map the lymph vessels in the edematous limb. A satisfying outcome was provided after the surgery. No report of lymphedema caused by this condition has been previously reported in the literature.MedicineA Successful Outcome after Lymphaticovenular Anastomosis Using a Contralateral Augmented Reality Mapping Technique in a Lymphedema Patient Secondary to a Mycobacterium abscessus InfectionArticleSCOPUS10.1097/GOX.00000000000045542-s2.0-8513939972121697574
