    Author: Young JL, Rodda J, Selber P, Rutz E, Graham HK.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 2010 Oct; 41(4):561-77. PubMed ID: 20868885.
    Abstract:
    This article discusses the sagittal gait patterns in children with spastic diplegia, with an emphasis on the knee, as well as the concept of the "dose" of surgery that is required to correct different gait pathologies. The authors list the various interventions in the order of their increasing dose. The concept of dose is useful in the consideration of the management of knee dysfunction.
