Assessment of biomechanical parameters of the shoulder joint at the operated side versus non-operated side in patients treated surgically for breast cancer

ConclusionNone of the treatment methods applied ensured a full release of the restriction within the shoulder and upper limb. The deficits observed may constitute a serious disorder of the musculoskeletal system; therefore, a clinical study of biomechanical parameters of the shoulder joint may be an important control of patients’ functional status after breast cancer treatment.
