ABSTRACT
The treatment of distal humeral fractures is a considerable challenge. The stabilisation method depends on a number of factors, including the complexity of damage to both bone and soft tissue, the number of bone fragments produced and their arrangement. At the same time, general scientific literature lacks information on the rehabilitation of these patients. The article sets out a rehabilitation programme and guidelines for physiotherapists treating patients after distal humeral fracture surgery.
