What are the characteristics of minimally invasive surgery compared with other treatment methods? Today, we will give the patient's family a detailed answer:
1) Complete multi-limb and multi-site surgery at one time, so that multiple deformed parts of the affected limb can be corrected, with small incision, less bleeding, no need for blood transfusion, less pain and no side effects and sequelae.
2) The coordination, integrity and flexibility of limb function are greatly enhanced after operation.
3) The overall function recovered quickly after operation, and the hospitalization time was short (less than one month). Generally, obvious effects can be seen at 1 week after operation.
4) The treatment process of previous surgery is omitted (in the past, only one deformed part was made at a time, and it usually took 2-3 years for patients with cerebral palsy to complete the correction of the whole deformed limb, so other deformed parts could not cooperate with it after operation, and the postoperative effect was poor. In addition, some families can't afford the cost of multiple operations, which increases the economic burden.
5) Non-surgical sites can also be corrected. Because of the deformity of lower limbs, patients are forced to adopt a special posture, that is, false deformity, in order to balance their bodies. After the deformity of lower limbs is corrected, the upper limbs will naturally be relieved or disappeared. After the limb deformity disappears, spasmodic muscles in other parts, such as eye muscles and tongue muscles, can also recover, so strabismus and language disorders will also improve and disappear.
6) Correct the disorder caused by opposite innervation, establish correct innervation ways, improve the innervation function of nerves, and coordinate the activities of nerves, muscles and joints.
7) Dissection of sympathetic nerve network can dilate cerebral vessels, increase cerebral blood flow, and improve the symptoms and intelligence of children with salivation and upper limb spasm with language disorder.
8) Because the operation was used at the key point, the disease was broken, and the brain function was further restored with traditional Chinese medicine after operation, and there was no recurrence.
Experts remind patients' families that the progress of medical technology fully shows that cerebral palsy is not an incurable disease! Parents of children with cerebral palsy should not worry, find the right treatment, find early treatment, and children can live the same life as normal people!
