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

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.

Erb's Palsy

Archives of Neurology, 1969
ERB'S description of paralysis of the upper portion of the brachial plexus is remembered mainly for its postscript. As an after-thought to his discussion, Erb noted that birth trauma is one of the causes of such paralysis, and the term Erb's (or more properly Duchenne-Erb's) palsy now usually refers to this phenomenon.
