Referring patient for physiotherapy treatment post operative is not a common practice and surgeons relay on children natural developmental milestone in their recovery. however, prescribed physiotherapy treatment could promote maximum functional recovery and wellness. the aim of this research is (1) to evaluate the functional deference between patients who had conventional physiotherapy treatment program and patients who had home program prescribed by the orthopedic surgeon (2) to investigate what might be the underlying risk factors that could enhance or prohibit satisfactory functional level post operatively.
