THE DYNAMICS OF RECOVERY OF MOTOR ABILITIES IN PATIENTS WITH CEREBRAL PALSY, A FORM OF SPASTIC DIPLEGIA AFTER CLOSED SURGICAL INTERVENTIONS ON THE MUSCULOSKELETAL APPARATUS OF THE LOWER EXTREMITIES IN THE CONDI- TIONS OF A SPECIALIZED SANATORIUM
A complex clinical study of 53 patients with infantile cerebral palsy has been performed, the form studied: spastic diplegia. Various neuroorthopedic syndromes with prevalent spasticity of a certain group of muscles, on the basis of which contractures are formed, have been revealed. The complex treatment with the use of the method of minimally invasive surgery (closed selective fasciomyotomy) in the patients of the first group made it possible to achieve significantly greater positive dynamics in motor development than in patients receiving one of the types of conservative therapy (the second group).
