    • 1st Edition
    • Micheline Isel + 1 more
    • French
    Toute pathologie ou traumatisme de la main peut être source d'enraidissement. La chirurgie de la main est techniquement exigeante et le rétablissement de la fonction nécessite une rééducation bien conduite qui doit tenir compte des choix opératoires du chirurgien. Associées à la rééducation, les orthèses sont le complément indispensable pour maintenir une position et/ou amplifier une fonction. Micheline Isel, kinésithérapeute–ort... a développé une grande expérience dans ces deux domaines grâce à l'importante activité chirurgicale du Professeur Michon et du Professeur Merle au CHU de Nancy puis à l'Institut européen de la main de Nancy et Luxembourg. Cet ouvrage, illustré par près de 800 photos et dessins de grand qualité, permet avec beaucoup de précision de définir et créer la meilleure orthèse en fonction de la pathologie traitée et d'instaurer le ou les protocoles de rééducation sans menacer les réparations tissulaires.
