MRL in a 52-year-old woman with high-grade upper right limb lymphedema secondary to lymphadenectomy for a breast cancer. 3D frontal spoiled gradient-echo MIP after 35 minutes from the contrast agent administration (a) shows only some discontinuous lightly enhanced skin lymphatic vessels (white solid arrows) in the inferior lateral portion of the affected limb within a honeycombing area (open arrows). No pathological lymphatic vessels are seen in the upper right arm after 45 minutes.
