Objective To investigate the effect of carotid sympathetic nerve net stripping operation in treating children patients with spastic unilateral cerebral palsy and its effect on motor function.Methods Seventy-six children cases of spastic unilateral cerebral palsy were divided into the control group and observation group.On the basis of routine therapy,the former was treated with type A botulinum toxin,while the latter used the carotid sympathetic nerve netting operation for the treatment.After 6-month treatment,the improvement degree of the Comprehensive Functional Rating Scale of Cerebral Palsy Children,Gross Motor Function Measure(GMFM) score and Ashworth spasm grade were compared between the two groups.Results after 6-month treatment,the improvement degrees of the Comprehensive Functional Rating Scale of Cerebral Palsy Children,GMFM scores and Ashworth spasm grade in the observation group were significantly greater than those in the control group,the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).Conclusion The carotid sympathetic nerve net stripping operation in treating children patients with spastic unilateral cerebral palsy has significant effect and is worthy to be popularized in clinic.
