Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The presence of pain, reduced range of motion and decrease of muscle strength of the upper limb in the early postoperative period are some of the major deficiencies of the breast cancer patients. The objectives of this study were to evaluate muscle strength, range of motion (ROM), pain, perimetry of the upper limbs and applied questionnaires of the upper lim function and quality of life, in patients after surgical treatment of breast cancer in different postoperative periods and different groups following rehabilitation: traditional postoperatively exercise to perform at home versus traditional exercises associated with weekly physiotherapy sessions to strength training for shoulder movements.
