Botulinum Neurotoxin A-Induced Muscle Morphology Changes in Children with Cerebral Palsy: A One-Year Follow-Up Study Open
Botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT-A) is widely used to reduce spasticity in children with cerebral palsy. Despite its therapeutic benefits, incomplete muscle recovery has been observed post-treatment. This study evaluated longitudinal BoNT…

The relation between macro‐ and microscopic muscular alterations of the medial gastrocnemius in children with spastic cerebral palsy Open
Children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) exhibit muscle growth deficits, secondary to the pathological neural input to the muscular system caused by the primary brain lesion. As a result, their medial gastrocnemius is commonly affected an…

Histological analysis of the medial gastrocnemius muscle in young healthy children Open
Introduction Histological data on muscle fiber size and proportion in (very) young typically developing (TD) children is not well documented and data on capillarization and satellite cell content are also lacking. Aims This study investiga…

The relation between macro- and microscopic intrinsic muscular alterations of the medial gastrocnemius in children with spastic cerebral palsy Open
Children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) are characterized by altered muscle growth, secondary to the pathological neural input to the muscular system, caused by the primary brain lesion. As a result, their medial gastrocnemius is commonl…

Short-Term Effects of Botulinum Toxin-A Injection on the Medial Gastrocnemius Histological Features in Ambulant Children with Cerebral Palsy: A Longitudinal Pilot Study Open
Botulinum toxin-A (BoNT-A) injection is known to exert beneficial effects on muscle tone, joint mobility and gait in children with cerebral palsy (CP). However, recent animal and human studies have raised the concern that BoNT-A might be h…

Histological analysis of the gastrocnemius muscle in preschool and school age children with cerebral palsy compared with age-matched typically developing children Open
Inconsistent histological alterations have been reported in children with cerebral palsy (CP) but whether they are present in very young and ambulant CP children and differ from those reported in old CP children is not known. This study hi…

Fine-needle percutaneous muscle microbiopsy technique as a feasible tool to address histological analysis in young children with cerebral palsy and age-matched typically developing children Open
Cerebral palsy (CP) is a heterogeneous group of motor disorders attributed to a non-progressive lesion in the developing brain. Knowledge on skeletal muscle properties is important to understand the impact of CP and treatment but data at t…
