You could run a MEDLINE search.
I suggest you to use PubMed (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed/), my
favourite MEDLINE interface.
Running the following search,
lymphedema [MAJR] AND (statistics [MESH] OR prevalence [MESH]) AND review
[PT]
you will retrieve 18 citations.
Among them you could find:
Logan V. [See Related Articles]
Incidence and prevalence of lymphoedema: a literature review.
J Clin Nurs. 1995 Jul;4(4):213-9. Review.
PMID: 7620664; UI: 95346061.
that perhaps is exactly what you are looking for.
To find other citations, click on the [See Related Articles] link.
Hope this may be useful to you.
Best Regards,
Gilberto Lacchia, MD
