Cerebral Palsy

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 1993
Over the last century, our understanding of cerebral palsy has broadened. For example, we now know that it results more commonly from prenatal abnormalities than from perinatal difficulties. Yet, in most cases we are still no closer to understanding the operant mechanism of injury or how the injury results in the expressed motor disorder.

Cerebral palsy

Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1997
Cerebral palsy is caused by a static lesion to the cerebral motor cortex that is acquired before, at, or within 5 years of birth. Multiple causes for the condition exist and include cerebral anoxia, cerebral hemorrhage, infection, and genetic syndromes.

Cerebral palsy

The Lancet, 2018
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a lifespan motor disorder arising from damage to the developing brain before or shortly after birth. People with CP may experience problems with muscle coordination and difficulties with the organization and processing of sensory information.

Cerebral palsy

The Lancet, 2004
Cerebral palsy, a range of non-progressive syndromes of posture and motor impairment, is a common cause of disability in childhood. The disorder results from various insults to different areas within the developing nervous system, which partly explains the variability of clinical findings.

CONTRACTURES IN CEREBRAL PALSY

Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1987
Contractures in cerebral palsy (CP) are usually in flexion at the hips and knees, and in plantar flexion at the ankles. When correctly indicated, surgical release is appropriate. Occasionally, extension contractures of the hip and knee develop, and dorsiflexion contractures of the ankle may ensue.

Cerebral palsy

The Lancet
Cerebral palsy is a lifelong physical disability affecting movement and posture. The motor impairments of cerebral palsy result from non-degenerative brain injuries, brain malformations, and genetic variations, arising from multiple risk factors and causal pathways during preconception, pregnancy, birth, or within the first 2 years of life.

Cerebral Palsy

Seminars in Perinatology, 2008
Extreme prematurity confers about a 100-fold increase in the risk of cerebral palsy (CP), relative to birth at term gestation. Although CP is primarily a disorder of movement, many children with this disorder have other impairments which may affect their quality of life and life expectancy.

Infection and cerebral palsy

Seminars in Perinatology, 2000
Recent data suggest a possible association of infection and cerebral palsy. The objective of this article is to examine the relationship between intrauterine infection, fetal infection, and long-term neurological dysfunction. In some children maternal infection is associated with brain white matter damage, periventricular leukomalacia, and cerebral ...

Cerebral palsy

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2000
The neurorehabilitation program for cerebral palsy changes over time. During the first 2 years of life, an infant stimulation program with an emphasis on more than just improving motor deficits is emphasized. The importance of involvement of a knowledgeable therapist cannot be overemphasized. Realistic expectations must be articulated firmly.
