Abstract

Efficacy of «Cyclo 3 Fort» was studied for treating edemata in the early postoperative period in 20 patients with rheumatoid arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis after total hip arthroplasty compared with a control group of 20 people with similar pathology who did not take «Cyclo 3 Fort» and other decongestants. The efficacy of «Cyclo 3 Fort» was reliably proved, and specific recommendations were given for using the drug in the early postoperative period in order to treat edemata of operated extremities.
