Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Single event multilevel surgery (SEMLS) is common procedure to improve gait and functioning of children with spastic cerebral palsy(CP).These series is aim to observe post-operative outcomes of gross motor function (GMFCS) and hip migration index (MI). MATERIALS & METHODS: Patient underwent SEMLS at HTAA from 2014 to 2018.Data were data taken from case notes during follow-up at rehabilitation clinic. RESULTS: There were 10 patients, 6 were boys.Mean age at surgery was 6.6 years old.7 having spastic diplegic and 1 each having triplegic and quadriplegic CP. Table 1: Type of surgery Patient Adductor release Hamstring release Gastrocnemius recession Tendon achilles lengthening Posteromedial release 1 bilateral bilateral 2 bilateral bilateral bilateral 3 bilateral bilateral 4 bilateral bilateral 5 bilateral bilateral Left 6 bilateral bilateral 7 bilateral 8 bilateral bilateral 9 bilateral bilateral 10 bilateral bilateral 2 patients had second surgery at 1 year apart:1 underwent talipes equinovarus deformity correction and another had repeated SEMLS.Only 5patients had pre and post-operative pelvis radiograph where 4 patients(80%) improved in hip MI. Table 2: Improvement of GMFCS level Patient GMFCS Level improvement Pre Post 1 IV III 1 level 2 II II 0 3 III III 0 4 IV III 1 level 5 V V 0 6 IV III 1 level 7 IV IV 0 8 III II 1 level 9 III III 0 10 V V 0 40% of patients have 1 level improvement. 75% of patients with GMFCS IV had improvement compared to GMFCS III (33%). DISCUSSIONS: 73.5% has good improvement of hip MI postoperatively with 0.3% risk of hip surgery1.Incidence of hip displacement related to GMFCS level2.Evidence proved SEMLS improved gait3 and stability of GMFCS4. CONCLUSION: SEMLS may affect the improvement and stability of GMFCS level and hip MI; and that effect is level-dependent.
