“…Permeability edema occurs mainly in the lower legs. 7 In the case reported here, the patient was unable to wear shoes due to edema and unable to ride a bicycle due to dorsiflexion. This was a major hindrance to his daily life.…”

“…6 Drug-induced peripheral edema has been described as noninflammatory edema and has four mechanisms: precapillary arteriolar vasodilation (vasodilatory edema), sodium/water retention (renal edema), lymphatic insufficiency (lymphedema) and increased capillary permeability (permeability edema). 7 The etiology of MET inhibitor-induced edema is still unclear, but may be attributable to an attenuation of HGF-mediated signaling in the peripheral vascular endothelium. 1,6 In physiological conditions, HGF in the vascular endothelium helps to protect against VEGF-induced endothelial hyperpermeability.…”

“…Future research should investigate the causal direction of the relationships identified in this study. In addition, we did not investigate the distribution of potential causes of edema (e.g., heart failure [ 3 ] or medication usage [ 4 ]) in this cohort, which could provide important information regarding allocation of resources to treat edema. A single self-report question was used to identify peripheral edema.…”

“…Chronic edema of the lower limbs (i.e., chronic peripheral edema) can cause pain, heaviness, weakness, discomfort, and negative body image, and limitations in mobility and flexibility [ 1 ]. Multiple causes of peripheral edema exist, including deficiencies in the venous or lymphatic systems [ 2 ], heart failure [ 3 ], and certain medications [ 4 ]. When peripheral edema is untreated, it can increase the risk of infection and ulcers [ 5 ].…”

“…Medication use may also cause or worsen peripheral edema [ 26 ]. Some vasodilators, such as calcium channel blockers, may cause an increase in capillary hydrostatic pressure, which results in extravasation of fluid to the interstitium and edema [ 27 , 28 ].…”
