Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • volume of the most affected leg

    Change in % of the volume of the most affected leg according to disk model method

    baseline ; after 5 days intensive CDP

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Quality of Life

    baseline ; after 5 days intensive CDP

Study Arms (2)

Standard intensive CDP

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

This arm is the controlled group ; patients in that group will undergo a current practice performed in the lymphology unit.

Other: Current intensive CDP

Stendo group

EXPERIMENTAL

This arm contitutes the group where the Stendo pulsating suit sessions are investigated in the frame of the CDP in replacement of the pressotherapy sessions.

Other: intensive CDP where Stendo pulsating suit replaces pressotherapy

Interventions

Standard Intensive CDP including * manual lymph drainage, * pressotherapy and * bandaging

Standard intensive CDP

The intervention consist to perform daily during 5 days an intensive CDP where pressotheray is replaced by Stndo pulsating suit sessions.
