Long-Term Outcomes And Complications Of Rhizotomy Procedures

Selective dorsal rhizotomy (sdr) is a surgical treatment for spasticity in children with cerebral palsy (cp). Microvascular decompression (mvd) and partial sensory rhizotomy (psr) provide longstanding pain relief in trigeminal neuralgia (tn). Selective dorsal rhizotomy (sdr) is a well accepted neurosurgical procedure performed for the relief of spasticity interfering with motor function in children with spastic cerebral palsy (cp). Selective dorsal rhizotomy (sdr) can significantly reduce or permanently eliminate cerebral palsy (cp) spasticity and improve the mobility of patients with spastic cp. Selective dorsal rhizotomy (sdr) is a well accepted neurosurgical procedure performed for the relief of spasticity interfering with motor function in children with.

For the present review, we included studies that described the outcomes and adverse effects in patients undergoing sdr who were younger than 18 years of age at the. Most people find lasting relief from pain after the surgery.
