Botulinum toxin A (BoNT-A) is a substance that requires repeated application due to its effectiveness being lost 12–16 weeks post application. Performing these intra-muscular injections under anesthesia reduces pain and distress during applications, ensuring effective and successful functional results. This study evaluates motor development of patients undergoing 3 or more repeated BoNT-A application in a tertiary pediatric hospital and the safety as well as effect of 3 different types of anesthesia. 75 children with

This study compares the initial outcomes of minimally invasive techniques for single-event multi-level surgery with conventional single-event multi-level surgery. The minimally invasive techniques included derotation osteotomies using closed corticotomy and fixation with titanium elastic nails and percutaneous lengthening of muscles where possible. A prospective cohort study of two matched groups was undertaken. Ten children with diplegic

Aims. A flexed knee gait is common in patients with bilateral spastic
cerebral palsy and occurs with increased age. There is a risk for
the recurrence of a flexed knee gait when treated in childhood,
and the aim of this study was to investigate whether multilevel
procedures might also be undertaken in adulthood. Patients and Methods. At a mean of 22.9 months (standard deviation 12.9), after single
event multi level surgery, 3D gait analysis was undertaken pre-
and post-operatively for 37 adult patients with bilateral cerebral
palsy and a fixed knee gait. Results. There was a significant improvement of indices and clinical and
kinematic parameters including extension of the hip and knee, reduction
of knee flexion at initial contact, reduction of minimum and mean
knee flexion in the stance phase of gait, improved range of movement
of the knee and a reduction of mean flexion of the hip in the stance phase.
