The aim of the study is: 1) to analyse selected features of body posture in women after mastectomy, 2) to compare them with body posture of healthy women, 3) to determine the effect of rehabilitation physical exercises on the changes in body posture in women after mastectomy.
The research material consisted of 85 women after mastectomy examined once, including 40 of them who were additionally examined twice at six-monthly intervals. Moreover, a group of 20 women was isolated who regularly attended rehabilitation classes for a period of one year in question. A comparative group was a group of 85 healthy women. The examinations were performed using photogrametric assessment of body posture.
Distinct adverse changes in body posture of women after mastectomy in comparison with healthy women were found, manifested mainly in asymmetry of trunk and shoulder girdle and greater forward leaning of the trunk. Significant relationship was indicated between the operation of mastectomy and the asymmetry of position of scapulas.
When comparing the changes in the features of body posture in the group of women who exercised regularly with other women for the period of one year it was found that a positive effect of regular rehabilitation was keeping the angle of body inclination on the same level and improvement in trunk symmetry, position of scapulas and shoulder girdle.
本研究的目的是：1）分析乳房切除术后女性身体姿势的选定特征；2）将她们与健康女性的身体姿势进行比较；3）确定康复体育锻炼对乳房切除术后女性身体姿势变化的影响。
研究材料包括85名接受过一次检查的乳房切除术后女性，其中40人每隔六个月额外接受两次检查。此外，还挑选出一组20名女性，她们在所述的一年时间里定期参加康复课程。对照组为85名健康女性。使用身体姿势的摄影测量评估进行检查。
发现乳房切除术后女性的身体姿势与健康女性相比有明显的不良变化，主要表现为躯干和肩胛带不对称以及躯干前倾更大。乳房切除术与肩胛骨位置不对称之间存在显著关联。
在比较定期锻炼的女性组与其他女性在一年时间内身体姿势特征的变化时发现，定期康复的积极效果是使身体倾斜角度保持在同一水平，并改善躯干对称性、肩胛骨位置和肩胛带。
