Comparison of outcome between operative treatment and constraint-induced movement therapy for forearm and wrist deformities in cerebral palsy. A randomized controlled trial
Several treatment strategies for upper extremity deformities in cerebral palsy have been studied for their effectiveness in terms of function and quality of life. There are a few comparative studies between nonoperative and operative management for upper extremity deformities. This study aimed to co...

There are a few comparative studies between nonoperative and operative management for upper extremity deformities. This study aimed to compare the outcomes between conservative methods using constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) and operative methods using pronator teres rerouting, flexor carpi ulnaris transfer to extensor carpi radialis brevis (FCU transfer to ECRB) and fractional lengthening in cerebral palsy patients with forearm pronation and wrist flexion contracture.

Secondary endpoints comprised range of motion, Volkmann's angle, and the Pediatric Outcomes Data Collection Instrument (PODCI). At 1-year follow-up, there was no significant difference between the nonoperative and operative groups in any SHUEE dimensions, range of motion or PODCI. However, there was significant improvement in Volkmann's angle in the operative group compared to the CIMT group: CIMT = 11.11 ± 9.92, surgery = -13.00 ± 4.72: p = 0.04 (95% CI = 1.68-46.54). Operative treatment provided more improvement in wrist posture, represented by Volkmann's angle, in cerebral palsy patients. However, SHUEE, range of motions and PODCI were comparable between the CIMT and operative groups. 2022-08-04T04:26:11Z 2022-08-04T04:26:11Z 2022-04-01 Article Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation.

Several treatment strategies for upper extremity deformities in cerebral palsy have been studied for their effectiveness in terms of function and quality of life. There are a few comparative studies between nonoperative and operative management for upper extremity deformities. This study aimed to compare the outcomes between conservative methods using constraint-induced movement therapy (CIMT) and operative methods using pronator teres rerouting, flexor carpi ulnaris transfer to extensor carpi radialis brevis (FCU transfer to ECRB) and fractional lengthening in cerebral palsy patients with forearm pronation and wrist flexion contracture.
