Foreword
It gives me great pleasure to write the foreword for this text that has been put together by the hard work of Dr. Satyendra Kumar Tiwary from the Banaras Hindu University of Varanasi.
Many of us, as treating clinicians, are often confronted with how to manage a patient with lower limb edema. This text very much reviews the issues of lower limb edema, looking at not only the anatomy and physiology but also those issues that confront the clinician looking after these patients. There is a worldwide group of experts who have contributed to this text and looking at all the various investigations and potential treatment pathways for this cohort of patients. I very much hope that many practising physicians will be able to nd information in this excellent text that will allow them to benet the large number of patients worldwide who suffer from swelling in their lower legs.

Foreword
Edema of the lower limbs is a very common clinical picture: people of every age, from childhood to the elderly complain of it.
Edema has several causes and the origin is not always clearly and immediately understood. For example, slight swelling in young teenagers, which disappear spon­taneously, or local, limited, painful swelling of a foot, maybe sometimes of unclear origin.
Commonly, edema is discussed as a clinical sign in a paper or in a chapter dedi­cated to a specic disease, like venous insufciency, but is not a single argu­ment itself.
However, as the symptom is common, alternative diagnoses need to be consid­ered if the cause is not clear. Several diseases, related to different specialties, maybe the cause of limb swelling, requiring to have a multispecialty overview to nd out the origin of edema. Moreover, some rare diseases, like vascular malformations, or genetic disorders may be difcult to be considered as causes of swelling.
The result is that the patient is sent to different specialists, wasting time and money, to get a correct diagnosis.
This book, which collects all the pathologies that may be the cause of lower limb edema, is an important aid for the correct diagnosis and treatment of limb swelling. It will help the physician not only to understand and update his own knowledge about physiopathology of uid accumulation in the limbs but also to have available,

Foreword
in a single book, a series of chapters regarding all the diseases that may create edema, including rare one which may be difcult to consider in unclear cases.
For these reasons, this book is an original and helpful publication that each phy­sician, involved in lower limb diseases, should have in his library.

Preface
Lower limb edema is the commonest peripheral edema affecting the legs, ankle, and foot. The cause may be simple, sometimes like sitting for a long time in a plane or standing for too long in the journey or work. Sometimes, it may be a result of more serious underlying diseases like systemic diseases in the form of cardiac failure, liver disease, or renal impairment, etc. It is a manifestation leading to consultation from so many specialists like Surgery, Plastic Surgery, Orthopaedics, Neurology, Vascular Surgery, Cardiology, Nephrology, Medicine, Radiotherapy, Physical Medicine, and Rehabilitation. Despite patients consulting in so many specialties, I have observed in my surgical practice of 20 years in university teaching hospital that it is a complex clinical scenario for which the cause, cure, and complications need very careful work up from the clinician as results and outcome may be difcult, unpredictable, and limited, sometimes amidst uncertainties.
Lower limb edema may be trivial, temporary, transient, or terrible, not respond­ing to treatment. Cellular uid balance disruption and accumulation in interstitial space with gravitational pull effect driving uid in dependent part is the culprit in lower limb edema. Peripheral edema is common in older adults and pregnant women, but it can occur in any age group including children. It may affect one or both legs and may be acute or chronic.
So many disciplines needed with overlapping and myriad manifestations of many underlying pathologies in different patients make it difcult to work up and treat

Preface
lower limb edema systematically and honestly by consultants of every discipline. Dedicated books as well as a focus on specic limb edema during teaching and train­ing are lacking in literature as well as custom. Considering that so many patients of all age groups, children, middle-aged, old, pregnant, are affected and lack of very lucid clinical approach with targeted treatment in lower limb edema led me to the concept and completion of this book. With 23 chapters contributed by competent consultants in their eld covering every aspect of lower limb edema, comprising anatomy, physi­ology, etiology, pathogenesis, investigations, differential diagnosis, clinical manifes­tations, genetics, local causes, systemic causes, acute edema, chronic edema, compression therapy, and quality of life. A lot of ow charts, gures, tables, and dia­grams have been included in chapters as per requirement to clear the clouds of confu­sion and construct a complete clinical concept for consultants.
This book has been framed with contents to answer the queries in lower limb edema, whether that is acute or chronic, unilateral, or bilateral, local, or systemic, trivial, or terrible, persistent, or progressive. It fullls the gap in scientic knowledge helping general surgeons, plastic surgeons, orthopedician, neurologist, vascular sur­geons, cardiologists, nephrologists, family physicians, and helping trainee and fellows in different disciplines once they come through a case of lower limb edema.
I acknowledge the help of Dr. Naren Agarwal, Ms. Jagjit Kaur Saini, and Ms. Beauty Christobel Gunasekaran from Springer Nature to bring out the book in its present form with their valuable inputs and suggestions till the nishing of the proj­ect. I am highly indebted to Mrs. Sangita Yadav (Chandrapur) for continuous and valuable suggestions in English, grammar, and corrections to shape the book nally in publication. I am indebted to my family Hema, Apoorva, and Advaita who pro­vided me all the moral support and will forgive me for any negligence which was unavoidable.
I dedicate this book to all the patients managed during my entire career who were the resource as well as inspiration in the management of this complex manifestation of lower limb edema.
It is my earnest desire that this book becomes a valuable source of understanding and management of common to complex clinical condition of lower limb edema to the students, trainees, fellows as well as clinicians who may have difculty at any point getting corrected with aid of this resource.
I conclude my words here with a quote from the most ancient scientic literature of the world, Rigveda told about 5000 years back. Have you ever wondered—what did the seers () of the Vedas yearn for?
In a hymn addressed to the Visvedevas () in the Rig Veda, they prayed for noble thoughts from all directions.
