| Abstract | 63 children with cerebral palsy were under medical surveillance in the Republican Children’s Psychoneurological Hospital (Tashkent, Uzbekistan). The age was fluctuated from two to 14 years, mean age was 8±6 years. The children with spastic forms of cerebral palsy and dyskinetic cerebral palsy with rigid muscles were selected for treatment with local injections of Botulotoxin-A. Injection of Botulotoxin was administered in those muscle agonists that were significant in the formation of pathological muscular synergia. The results of electroneuromyography (EMG) on the background of treatment with botulotoxin testify to the reliable decrease of tonus not only in injected muscles, but also in muscles of antagonists and agonists. |
