Abstract

Cerebral palsy is one of the most common disability factors in children. The incidence rate is increasing year by year. Spastic cerebral palsy accounts for about 60%-70% of all types of cerebral palsy. Most CP patients will experience abnormal gait during rehabilitation, which will seriously affect the self-care ability and mental health of children with spastic cerebral palsy. At present, the cause and mechanism of brain injury in children with cerebral palsy are not clear, so effective etiological treatment can not be carried out. The author summarizes the treatment of abnormal gait in children with spastic cerebral palsy in Chinese and Western medicine in the past five years, in order to provide reference for further optimizing the treatment scheme and promoting the rehabilitation of cerebral palsy.
