dc.description.abstractSerious shoulder malalignment which causes pain and dysfunction as well as cosmetic disturbance, constitutes a major problem following radical neck dissection in patients with head and neck cancer. Complete lesion or enbloc removal of the accessory nerve during surgery results in paralysis of the trapezius muscle, main stabilizer of the scapula. Loss of its function causes ipsilateral shoulder depression and protraction, decreased active range of motion and disabling pain associated with strain and stretch of the rhomboids and levator scapula muscles. We developed a new orthosis, 'Akman-Sari Trapezius Palsy Orthosis', to correct shoulder malalignment and relieve pain in these patients. Here, we describe our orthosis and present a case in whom we have got excellent results with this orthosis.en_US
