Abstract:
Cerebral palsy is a major cause of severe chronic disability in children. Experimental models aim to replicate one or more features of cerebral palsy in developing animals. These models are as heterogeneous as the disorder itself, such as timing.and mechanism of injury (stroke, infection, congenital malformation or asphyxia),target of injury (white matter or neurons) or function outcome. This review is to summarize different experimental models in cerebral palsy.
