Access personalized Cerebral Dorsal Rhizotomy care using advanced medical technology, supported by expert specialists and dedicated international patient services.
At Medical Park Elazig Hospital, Cerebral Dorsal Rhizotomy is performed using advanced neurosurgical and neurorehabilitation techniques, with treatment plans tailored to each patient's neurological condition. Established in 2014, this JCI hospital in Elazig, Turkey has 124 beds and provides comprehensive neurological care.
Cerebral Dorsal Rhizotomy may be considered for carefully selected patients with significant spasticity, including children with cerebral palsy, when conservative treatments do not provide sufficient control. During the procedure, surgeons identify and selectively divide abnormal sensory nerve root fibres that contribute to excessive muscle tone. Detailed neurological and functional assessments are performed before surgery to determine suitability. Postoperative physiotherapy is an important part of treatment and helps patients develop improved movement, strength, balance, and motor control.
