title: [Early passive mobilization in surgery of the hand].
abstract: The authors present their experience of early passive mobilisation in hand surgery, by a continuous-cycle motorized device. This method of treatment has been applied to various pathological conditions (post-operative management following such operative procedures as stable osteosynthesis of fractures of the long bones, tenolysis and teno-myolysis, arthrolysis and treatment of complex trauma of the hand), demonstrating very good efficacy. This device allows continuous passive mobilisation of the fingers and represents useful complement in the rehabilitation program of the hand.
