In this study, researchers aimed to evaluate walking function, balance, and fall risk in patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema. The researchers' hypothesis is that balance and walking functions are affected due to a shift in the center of gravity in patients with breast cancer-related lymphedema, and that the risk of falls is increased in the patient population compared to the control group.

Gait analysis
The individual's walking performance will be measured using standard methods employed in clinical assessments and gait analysis studies. Measurements will be conducted in our clinic using the Zebris FDM 2 gait analysis system, and evaluations carried out with different measurement units will be reported as separate outcome criteria.

The Fullerton Advanced Balance Scale (FAB-Scale)
The FAB Scale is a performance-based test that assesses functional balance (static and dynamic). Functional balance includes static and dynamic components such as the body's overall balance ability, muscle coordination, proprioception, range of motion, muscle strength, and flexibility.

Modified Fall Effectiveness Scale (MFES)
The MFES is a self-report scale used to assess individuals' levels of fear of falling while performing various daily life activities. An adaptation of the Tinetti Fall Activity Scale (FES), the MFES aims to improve cultural adaptability by more comprehensively evaluating social and environmental factors.

Quick-DASH (Q-DASH)
The Q-DASH consists of 11 items derived from the DASH questionnaire to measure physical function and symptoms of the upper extremity. This index assesses the difficulties patients have experienced in daily living activities over the past week using a 5-point Likert scale. At least 10 out of 11 items must be answered to calculate the Q-DASH score. All items in the questionnaire are scored between 1 and 5. A score of 1 indicates no difficulty during the activity, while a score of 5 indicates complete inability to perform the activity. The Q-DASH has been found to be valid and reliable for assessing upper extremity activity limitations in breast cancer patients.

LYMQO-Arm Index
The LYMQOL Arm Index is a tool that measures the impact of lymphedema on arm function and assesses its effects on quality of life. It measures the effects on arm function, psychological health, social interactions, and physical symptoms. The index allows monitoring of arm swelling, pain, limitations in movement, and the impact of these effects on psychological and social life.

Female patients aged 18-65 years who are evaluated for upper extremity swelling after breast cancer surgery and/or radiation therapy and diagnosed with BRCL
Patient group aged 18-65 and age and gender-matched healthy female control group.
Female patients aged 18-65 years who presented to the Lymphedema outpatient clinic of the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Department at Kayseri City Hospital with upper extremity swelling following breast cancer surgery and/or radiation therapy and were diagnosed with BRCL (Group 1: LG, lymphedema group) will be included in the study. The control group (Group 2: KG) will consist of age- and gender-matched volunteer participants who presented to the Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation outpatient clinics with non-specific pain complaints and who did not have any postural, neurological, or orthopedic disorders.
