Cerebral Dorsal Rhizotomy is a specialized neurosurgical procedure used in selected patients with severe spasticity, particularly when muscle stiffness and abnormal reflexes significantly affect movement and daily activities. The procedure involves selectively interrupting specific sensory nerve root fibres responsible for excessive muscle tone while preserving nerve pathways that support normal function. Before surgery, specialists evaluate muscle tone, mobility, neurological function, and the patient's overall condition. Intensive physiotherapy and rehabilitation are generally required after the procedure.
