Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy

Thirty-six patients with hemiplegic cerebral palsy had surgical treatment for the upper limb and were followed up for 18 months postoperatively. Various operations were done. A striking finding was a significant improvement of stereognosis (ability to describe and recognize objects without vision). Most patients had improvement in different functional grasps following surgical reconstruction. Range of movement in the forearm and wrist also increased in most patients. The thumb-in-palm deformity was completely corrected in 31 of the patients and improved in the other five. Most patients had some or all of their expectations of the procedure fulfilled.
