  • Title: [The influence of permanent cerebellar stimulation on senso-motor disorders in cerebral palsy (author's transl)].
    Author: Winkelmüller W, Seidel BU, Dietz H.
    Journal: Neurochirurgia (Stuttg); 1977 Nov; 20(6):179-85. PubMed ID: 304185.
    Abstract:
    Based on Cooper's good results implantation of a bilateral cerebellar stimulator was performed in 2 children with cerebral palsy. The patients suffered from marked hypertonia of all limbs and involuntary movements. The follow-up study of 8 months revealed a decrease of spasticity and a progressive improvement of fine motor control. Our preliminary results justify the clinical application of cerebellar stimulation for functional treatment of sensory-motor disorders.
