Age at the time of the procedure ranged from 1 1/2 years to 10 years. Results were evaluated by measuring Reimers' migration percentage (MP). Mean follow-up ...

متن کاملPredictors of outcome of distal rectus femoris transfer surgery in ambulatory children with cerebral palsy.
The objective of this study was to identify the predictors of outcome of distal rectus femoris transfer in cerebral palsy. Preoperative and postoperative gait data for 81 patients were examined, focusing on knee flexion/extension range. Outcome was 'good' for 46 patients and 'poor' for 35. The poor outcome group had no improvement in knee range because of increased crouch postoperatively. Outco...

The purpose of this study was to test the premise that the performance of exercises with maximum efforts will increase spasticity in people with cerebral palsy (CP). Spasticity, in the present study, was define...
