The course of rehabilitation after endoprosthesis may vary, which results from the type of prosthesis used, but also from the patient's general health condition and coexisting diseases. The choice of methods and the time as well as the intensity should be individualised in each case.

● Anti-oedema and anti-coagulant measures;
