Effects of selective tibial nerve neurotomy as a treatment for adults presenting with spastic equinovarus foot: a systematic review.
OBJECTIVE Spastic equinovarus foot is a major cause of disability for neurorehabilitation patients, impairing their daily activities, social participation and general quality of life. Selective tibial nerve neurotomy is a neurosurgical treatment for focal spasticity, whose acceptance as treatment for spastic equinovarus foot remains controversial. We performed a systematic review of the literat...
متن کاملKinetic and kinematic gait analysis in a spastic hemiplegic patient after selective tibial neurotomy: a case report
Kinematics-based studies before and after selective tibial neurotomy (STN) gait have not been performed. It is very important for spastic patients before and after STN to evaluate quality of gait motion. We examined the quantitative changes in kinetic and kinematic parameters in the gait of a hemiplegic patient after STN. A patient with stroke-related hemiplegia who did not require aids to walk...
متن کاملSelective dorsal rhizotomy for spastic cerebral palsy.
Spast ic i ty is def ined as a movement disorder characterised by a velocity-dependent increase in tonic stretch reflexes. Children with spastic CP have a neuromuscular mobility impairment stemming from an upper motor neuron lesion in the brain over the areas in the motor cortex or the corticospinal tract, which descends in the spinal cord, in the lateral columns and carries signals for volunta...
متن کاملIntraoperative Neurophysiology Monitoring During Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy for Spastic Cerebral Palsy
Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR) is a neurosurgical procedure currently used as a surgical treatment of children with spasticity in their legs. In SDR, the dorsal roots from L2 to S1 or S2 is partially sectioned. The primary goal of SDR is to reduce spasticity and improve the range of movement with preservation of muscle strength. The dorsal roots involved in spasticity are identified on the ba...
متن کاملPlantar pressure displacement after anesthetic motor block and tibial nerve neurotomy in spastic equinovarus foot.
The aim of this study was to analyze the displacements of center of pressure (COP) using an in-shoe recording system (F-Scan) before and after motor nerve block and neurotomy of the tibial nerve in spastic equinovarus foot. Thirty-nine patients (age 45 ± 15 yr) underwent a motor nerve block; 16 (age 38 ± 15.2 yr) had tibial neurotomy, combined with tendinous surgery (n = 9). The displacement of...
