AIMTo investigate the dynamic of general motor function and manual abilities in children with spastic forms of cerebral palsy (CP) after complex rehabilitation combined with single and repeated injections of botulinum toxin A (BTA).PATIENTS AND METHODSThe article presents 18 month followup of 52 patients with mono- and bilateral spastic forms of CP after single and multiple injections of botulinum toxin A and complex rehabilitation/ Patients received totally 74 injection sessions: 17 (32.7%) children--twice, 5 (9.6%) children--three times. Motor development assessment was done according to the GMFCS and GMFMS-88 scales and centile curves of normal motor development connected with these scales, hand function was classified according to the MACS scale. For the first time results of botulinum toxin therapy and rehabilitation were compared with the natural motor development of patients with different levels of motor disturbances according to centile tables.RESULTSPatients with bilateral cerebral palsy improved slowly than hemiparetic and changes lasted for longer period. Level according to the MACS scale didn't depend on the gestational age of the patients, was higher in children with hemiparesis and changed for 1 level in 4 (7.7%) patients after the first botulinum toxin A injections.
