Abstract

The use of intramuscular alcohol in treating cerebral-palsied children has led to reduced spasticity for varying periods of time, although the periods diminish with each subsequent injection. During the period of reduced spasticity there is an opportunity for therapists and orthopaedic surgeons to determine whether corrective surgery is indicated. The injections have produced no adverse effects.
