Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of a structured physiotherapy and rehabilitation-based exercise program on clinical and functional parameters in a patient diagnosed with melorheostosis.

This study specifically aims to assess the effects of a structured physiotherapy and rehabilitation-based intervention program, including patient education and therapeutic exercise, on lower extremity functional parameters, muscle strength, balance, and quality of life in a patient with melorheostosis.

The main hypotheses:

H0: A structured physiotherapy and rehabilitation-based exercise program has no effect on improvement in clinical and functional evaluation parameters in a patient with melorheostosis.

H1: A structured physiotherapy and rehabilitation-based exercise program leads to improvement in clinical and functional evaluation parameters in a patient with melorheostosis.

  • Melorheostosis

Interventions

Assigned Interventions

Patient will receive patient education in addition to a structured exercise program. The exercise program will include progressive strengthening, flexibility, and balance-based exercises. Patient education will be delivered by targeting topics that encompass all components of the ICF framework. In addition, diaphragmatic breathing will be taught to patients prior to the exercise program. The exercise program will be conducted three times per week for 8 weeks. Baseline assessments will be performed before the intervention, and post-intervention assessments will be repeated after completion of the program. Furthermore, evaluations will be conducted again during a 6-month follow-up period.
