Question
A parent is seeking medical advice. Their one and a half-year-old daughter has been diagnosed with hypotonic type pediatric cerebral palsy, accompanied by low intelligence and language, drooling, inability to sit or stand independently, and symptoms such as strabismus and head tilting to the left and right. The daughter had experienced oxygen deficiency at birth and has undergone 10 days of rehabilitation treatment in a rehabilitation hospital. The parent wants to know if current medical technology can help in the recovery of brain-damaged nerves through minimally invasive surgery.
Answer
In response to your symptoms, this is a typical manifestation of spastic cerebral palsy. Scissors gait refers to small, slow steps, with stiff legs crossing inward, the feet close together, forming a scissor-like shape, commonly seen in cerebral palsy, spastic paraplegia, and bilateral brain and spinal cord diseases.
