Abstract

A case of severe motor and intellectual disabilities syndrome after being nearly drowned was reported. He could walk at the age of one year. But his condition became to a bedridden state by the hypoxic brain damage due to near drowning at one year and 5 months old. At one year and 8 months, he was treated by the Üeda" method for physical therapy to cerebral palsy (CP). Before the treatment he showed decorticate posture and opisthotonic posture. Six weeks after the treatment, the severity of spasticity was remarkably decreased. He could take hip flexion posture and relaxed posture easily. His status remarkably improved. The effectiveness of the Üeda" method to different spasticity from CP was also confirmed.
