Abstract (English):	The lymphatic system is one of the main systems of the human body, responsible for the drainage of excess interstitial fluids, acts in parallel with the cardiovascular system and consists of a network of lymphatic vessels and capillaries that carry the lymph, collecting ducts and ganglia. Imbalances in this system can lead to the formation of edema, fluid accumulation between cells. Manual lymphatic drainage is a technique designed to help the lymphatic system perform its functions. The technique developed by Vodder and Estrid has gained worldwide visibility and consists of stimulating lymph nodes and directing lymph in its natural sense, presenting good results in the treatment of edema. For the accomplishment of this work the literature review method was used, using the databases SciELO, Google Scholar and Annals of Internal Medicine. As inclusion criteria were evaluated articles of the Portuguese language that specifically portrayed the physiology of the lymphatic system and the pathophysiology of edema, so that, at the end of reading, of the 65 articles evaluated, only 19 fit. With this research, it can be seen that there are several techniques of lymphatic drainage, a method used to assist the lymphatic system in the drainage of excess interstitial fluid, and regardless of the method used, the technique should be performed by qualified person and with smooth and slow movements, always respecting the anatomy and physiology of the human body.

Abstract (Portuguese):	O sistema linfático é um dos principais sistemas do corpo humano, responsável pela drenagem do excesso de fluidos intersticiais, age paralelamente ao sistema cardiovascular e é constituído por uma rede de vasos e capilares linfáticos que transportam a linfa, ductos coletores e gânglios. Desequilíbrios nesse sistema podem acarretar na formação de edema, acumulo de liquido entre as células. A drenagem linfática manual é uma técnica desenvolvida para auxiliar o sistema linfático a realizar suas funções. A técnica desenvolvida por Vodder e Estrid, ganhou visibilidade mundial e consiste no estimulo dos linfonodos e no direcionamento da linfa no seu sentido natural, apresentando bons resultados no tratamento de edema. Para a realização do presente trabalho foi utilizado o método de revisão de literatura, utilizando as bases de dados SciELO, Google Acadêmico e Annals of Internal Medicine. Como critério de inclusão foram avaliados artigos da língua portuguesa que retratavam especificamente a fisiologia do sistema linfático e a fisiopatologia do edema, de modo que, ao final da leitura, dos 65 artigos avaliados, apenas 19 se enquadravam. Com a realização desta pesquisa, pode-se constatar que existem diversas técnicas de drenagem linfática, método utilizado para auxiliar o sistema linfático na drenagem do excesso de liquido intersticial, e que independentemente do método utilizado, a técnica deve ser realizada por pessoa qualificada e com movimentos suaves e lentos, respeitando sempre a anatomia e fisiologia do corpo humano.
