Abstract

The results of this retrospective case report indicate that occupational therapy is a beneficial conservative management treatment option for patients diagnosed with PTS. Occupational therapy is an effective treatment method for reducing and preventing contractures, improving range of motion and muscle strength, improving upper extremity function and increasing occupational performance and participation in activities of daily living in patients presenting with PTS. Further research is necessary to investigate the role of occupational therapy and PTS.
