Cerebral palsy

NeuroMolecular Medicine, 2002
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of disorders of movement and posture resulting from nonprogressive disturbances of the fetal or neonatal brain. More than 80% of cases of CP in term infants originate in the prenatal period; in premature infants, both prenatal or postnatal causes contribute.

Cerebral palsy

The Lancet, 2014
The syndrome of cerebral palsy encompasses a large group of childhood movement and posture disorders. Severity, patterns of motor involvement, and associated impairments such as those of communication, intellectual ability, and epilepsy vary widely. Overall prevalence has remained stable in the past 40 years at 2-3ยท5 cases per 1000 livebirths, despite ...

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.

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

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Clinics of North America, 2007
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.

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.

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

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.

Neuroimaging in cerebral palsy

The Journal of Pediatrics, 2004
Parents and clinicians concerned about high-risk infants and children with motor delay or cerebral palsy seek information on cause, treatment, prognosis, and recurrence risk. Used in combination with history and examination, neuroimaging studies can improve diagnosis and management.
