Dynamic EMG findings in varus hindfoot deformity and spastic cerebral palsy / Patricia S. BARTO in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-1 (February 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-1 (February 1984) . - p.88-93 Titre : Dynamic EMG findings in varus hindfoot deformity and spastic cerebral palsy Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Patricia S. BARTO, Auteur ; Robert S. SUPINSKI, Auteur ; Stephen R. SKINNER, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.88-93 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Dynamic electromyography was used to examine the activity of muscles of 26 children with varus hindfoot deformities as a result of spastic cerebral palsy. Four different patterns of inappropriate muscle activity involving the tibialis anterior, tibialis posterior, gastrocnemius and soleus were seen during walking. Dynamic electromyographic techniques can be very helpful in identifying the specific muscular aberrations which contribute to this deformity.

Posterior transfer of tibialis anterior in low-level myelodysplasia / John P. S. JANDA in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-1 (February 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-1 (February 1984) . - p.100-103 Titre : Posterior transfer of tibialis anterior in low-level myelodysplasia Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : John P. S. JANDA, Auteur ; Patricia S. BARTO, Auteur ; Stephen R. SKINNER, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.100-103 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A clinical and EMG evaluation was performed on six children with myelomeningocele who previously had undergone bilateral transfer of the tibialis anterior to the heel cord. While the operation was effective in eliminating the calcaneovarus foot deformity, the likelihood of producing a significant new deformity was great. Dynamic EMG studies indicated that the transferred muscle usually did not develop the desired phasic contraction during the stance phase of walking. Bracing requirements at the ankle were unaffected by the procedure. The authors conclude that this transfer is undesirable for children with myelomeningocele.
