Cerebral Dorsal Rhizotomy is a selective surgical approach designed to reduce abnormal muscle tone caused by spasticity. It is most commonly considered in carefully selected patients with cerebral palsy and severe lower-limb spasticity that interferes with mobility and function. The procedure selectively interrupts sensory nerve fibres contributing to abnormal reflex activity. Before treatment, doctors assess spasticity, muscle strength, gait, joint flexibility, and functional abilities. Long-term physiotherapy and rehabilitation help maximise functional improvement following surgery.
