General assessment of the upper limb
LECLERCQ C
HAND CLIN , 2003, vol. 19, n° 4, p. 557-564 Doc n°: 110976 Descripteurs : DD12 - EXPLORATION EXAMENS BILANS - MEMBRE SUPERIEUR Résumé anglais : Cerebral palsy is a general term that includes all the sequellae of infantile encephalopathies. This article discusses only infantile cerebral hemiplegia because it is the only one in which surgery can regularly improve function of the upper limb. Clinical examination of a spastic patient is lengthy and somewhat difficult, and is best performed together with all the practitioners involved in the child's care. Surgery should be aimed at correcting spasticity, muscle contracture and motor deficit, therefore all these elements must be specifically assessed during clinical examination.
