Abstract:
Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) combined with multi-modal techniques in spastic cerebral palsy (SCP).Methods:Thirty-one SCP patients, admitted to our hospital from June 2016 to June 2019, were chosen in our study; these patients received SDR combined with multi-modal techniques(single-level laminectomy, and intraoperative electromyography monitoring combined with micro-neurosurgery); and all patients received regular physical therapy postoperatively. Grading of manual muscle test (MMT) and grading modified Ashworth scale (MAS), and scores of Gross Motor Function Measure-88 (GMFM-88), Berg balance scale (BBS) and Functional Independence Measure (FIM) before surgery, and one, three, and 6 months after surgery were evaluated and compared.Results:As compared with those before surgery, significantly increased MMT grading, statistically decreased MAS grading, and significantly increased GMFM-88 scores, BBS scores, and FIM scale scores one, 3, and 6 months after surgery were recorded in these patients ( P<0.05). As compared with those one month after surgery, significantly increased MMT grading, statistically decreased MAS grading, and significantly increased GMFM-88 scores and FIM scores 6 months after surgery were recorded in these patients ( P<0.05). As compared with those 3 months after surgery, statistically decreased MAS grading 6 months after surgery were recorded in these patients ( P<0.05). There were no severe complications as CNS infection, cerebrospinal fluid leakage, incontinence, spondylolisthesis or spinal deformity, but only transient muscle weakness and numbness of lower limbs. Conclusion:SDR combined with multi-modal techniques is a safe and effective method for patients with SCP, which is minimally invasive, accurate and safe.
