The role of neurogenic feet deformities in the lower limb dysfunction structure in patients with cerebral palsy. Management of surgical treatment. Literature data review
Analysis of the literature data on the surgical treatment of feet deformities in children with cerebral palsy allowed determining of the first key pathogenesis aspects and management of surgical treatment. The main types of changes occurring in the feet under the influence of spastic disorders and the optimal methods of progressive deformities of feet surgical treatment were studied. The treatment management preference depends on intrapatient habits, age, the pattern of rescue, deformation gravity and mobility, level of the gross motor function (GMFCS). Various «soft tissue surgery» forms are effective provided sufficient deformation mobility for younger children group patients. The bone-cutting feet surgical measures are justified provided rigid deformations in more older children. A differentiated neurogenic feet deformities surgical treatment approach provides obtaining both early and long-term satisfactory treatment results.
