Cerebral palsy (CP) is the leading cause of childhood disability. This article reviews common presentations of CP and its possible causes. The management of common problems seen in affected children is discussed in a system-based approach. Many treatment options are available for CP, with varying degrees of evidence and acceptance.

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.

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.

Abstract 1. 1. Some of the definitions of cerebral palsy accepted in this paper do not exclude hereditary and familial cases. 2. 2. Prenatal causes are occupying a steadily growing part in the etiology of cerebral palsy syndromes. 3. 3.

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.

Cerebral palsy is a broad ranging term used to define a group of nonprogressive disorders that affect the development of movement and posture and occurred within the developing fetal or infant brain. Its etiologies are extensive and it remains the most prevalent chronic childhood motor disability.

CONTRACTURES IN CEREBRAL PALSY
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1987Contractures 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.

BIOMECHANICS IN CEREBRAL PALSY [PDF]
Journal of Pediatric Orthopaedics, 1983 Normal gait is dependent upon a coordinated series of events which moves the body through space with the minimal energy expenditure. Any neuromuscular abnormality which interferes with this pattern and results in loss of coordination will give rise to increased energy requirements.

Analyses were undertaken to determine the causes of cerebral palsy in a prospective study of 43,437 full-term children. Presumed causes were found for about 71% of the 34 quadriplegic and 40% of the 116 nonquadriplegic patients with cerebral palsy.
