ACTA ORTHOP BELG , 2000, vol. 66, n° 3, p. 259-264 Doc n°: 95777 Localisation : Documentation IRR Descripteurs : AJ23 - PARALYSIE CEREBRALE, DE32 - EXPLORATION EXAMENS BILANS - HANCHE Sixteen children with diplegic type of cerebral palsy and spastic internal rotation gait were evaluated using gait analysis before and an average of 3 years after multiple soft tissue surgery. Significant correction of the internal rotation gait was observed after multi-level soft tissue surgery which included medial hamstring lengthening in all cases. Our results suggest that for children with spastic internal rotation gait, multi-level soft tissue surgery effectively corrects the dynamic internal rotation gait in the absence of fixed bony rotational deformities.
