ABSTRACT
Management of lymphedema is a challenging issue in surgery. A variety of operations have been used, albeit with little success. To investigate the efficacy of testicular patch as a lymphatic conduit. An incision was made on the inguinal area of 10 dogs and all lymph nodes of inguinal area were excised. The tunica albuginea and parenchyma near the hilum of testes were taken and transferred to the site of excised lymph nodes. Microscopic study showed neovascularization of lymphatic duct in 80% of samples. Testicular patch graft can be used as a lymphatic conduit and implemented in the management of lymphedema
