A technique of rehabilitation treatment was suggested and tested on 25 patients with an elbow joint endoprosthesis. The postoperative rehabilitation involved three periods: absolute immobilization, relative immobilization and postimmobilization. Therapeutic measures should be adjusted to each specific stage and imply different physiotherapeutic modalities according to clinical features and duration of the postoperative period: position treatment; passive, light active dynamic exercise, isometric training, underwater exercise; electrostimulation; manual and mechanical massage; occupational therapy. Positive response after adequate postoperative rehabilitation was registered in 20 patients.

The authors analyse the treatment of 153 children aged 4.5-15 who were performed 213 tendon- and myoplasties for persistent lesions of the peripheral nerves. The peculiarities of rehabilitative therapy in this category of patients are described. Three groups of muscles used for grafting and requiring special approach during the rehabilitation period have been distinguished. The rehabilitative treatment is divided into three periods: preoperative preparation, working out of the new function and securing of the new motor act. The peculiarities of the rehabilitative treatment in each period have been substantiated.
