[Social and medical rehabilitation of patients subjected to surgery on account of aneurysms of the anterior connecting artery].

The report contains data concerning occupational and social rehabilitation of 46 patients operated on for aneurysma of the anterior communicative artery. It was established that the occupational prognosis depends upon the severity of the hemmorhage, character of surgical operation. Of significance are the conditions of work, time after the surgical operation. The authors mark that in 2/3 of the operated on patients the working capacity is being restored. A spontaneous restoration of diaturbed functions is slow and is not always sufficient. With this purpose it is expedient to repeat courses of a general tonic and special rehabilitative therapy. A favourable factor in the readaptation of patients is their early engagement in working activities. The authors give their recommendations for medical labour expert testimony for this category of patients.
