  • Title: [Clinico-electrophysiologic studies of the spastic syndrome and its neurosurgical treatment in patients with spinal cord lesions].
    Author: Livshits AV, Volkov GM, Gel'fand VB.
    Journal: Vopr Neirokhir; 1976; (5):36-43. PubMed ID: 1014516.
    Abstract:
    The authors analyse the results of surgical treatment of spastics in 15 patients with spinal cord lesions. The results of a dynamic, neurological and electrophysiological examinations permit to draw several conclusions on the mechanisms of spasticity and its elimination by surgery. A restoration of reflex activity in the absence of the spastic syndrome is considered by the authors as a favourable result of the operation.
