Abstract
Infantile cerebral palsy (ICP) occupies a leading position in its prevalence among childhood disabling neurological diseases.
Objective: to investigate the structure of spastic muscles in patients with ICP using ultrasonography (USG).
Patients and methods. A total of 196 patients with ICP (spastic diplegia) who received a cycle of sanatorium-and-spa treatment underwent clinical, neurological, electromyographic examinations and lower limb muscle USG.
Results. It was established that USG could reliably estimate the degree of structural changes in lower limb muscles. An average correlation was found between the level of development, by using the Gross Motor Function Classification System for Cerebral Palsy (GMFCS), and age at contracture formation (R=0.60; p=0.001). Analysis of USG and electromyographic findings in patients with ICP revealed a strong negative correlation with the amplitude and rates (R=-0.81; p=0.002; R=-0.77; p=0.001, respectively) and weak reciprocity-adequacy correlations (R=0.21; p=0.071; R=0.24; p=0.043, respectively).
Conclusion. Based on the findings, the authors formed rehabilitation approaches for motor disorders in children with ICP in relation to the magnitude of structural changes in the muscular system.
