Patients and Methods
Single-event multilevel surgery (SEMLS) has been used as an effective
intervention in children with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy (BSCP)
for 30 years. To date there is no evidence for SEMLS in adults with
BSCP and the intervention remains focus of debate. This study analysed the short-term outcome (mean 1.7 years, standard
deviation 0.9) of 97 ambulatory adults with BSCP who performed three-dimensional
gait analysis before and after SEMLS at one institution. Aims
