Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2009
Treatment of spasticity requires a team approach, including the patient and caregivers, therapists, physicians, and surgeons. The team needs to determine what component of the spasticity interferes with function. Traditional therapy continues to dominate the therapy provided to patients who are living with spasticity.

Antispastic medications that are directed to reduce clinical signs of spasticity, such as exaggerated reflexes and muscle tone, do not improve the movement disorder. Medication can even increase weakness which might interfere with functional movements, such as walking.

Spasticity has been defined as velocity-dependent hyperactivity of stretch reflexes; it is therefore only one aspect of the complex syndrome produced by a lesion of the upper motoneuron. Although spasticity may be partially responsible for joint contractures, it does not produce most of the functional disability experienced by patients with upper ...

Spastic paraplegia is a descriptive term and not a diagnosis. Its causes are many. In the classic form it is characterized by a progressive spasticity in the lower limbs, with all the signs and symptoms of a pyramidal tract disease below the level of the lesion. The onset is described by the patient in terms of fatigability of the lower limbs.

The presence of spasticity and pyramidal features is a hallmark of some of hereditary ataxias, such as autosomal-recessive spastic ataxia of Charlevoix-Saguenay, other primary spastic ataxias, Friedreich ataxia, or ataxia with isolated vitamin E deficiency.

Annals of Otology, Rhinology & Laryngology, 1976
130 cases of spastic dysphonia are reviewed with special emphasis on the etiology of the disorder. An analysis of the circumstances surrounding the onset of the disease points strongly to a psychogenic origin of the disease in, at least, the vast majority of the cases.

The hereditary spastic paraplegias (HSPs) comprise a large group of inherited neurologic disorders. HSP is classified according to the mode of inheritance, the HSP locus when known, and whether the spastic paraplegia syndrome occurs alone or is accompanied by additional neurologic or systemic abnormalities.
