Summary

The main purpose of this study is to investigate the medium to long-term outcomes (3-10 years) after Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR) in ambulatory children and young people with cerebral palsy.

Some parents and children and young people will also be invited to take part in an interview to understand their experiences of SDR.

PROCEDURE

Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy

Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR) is an irreversible neurosurgical procedure where 50-70% of the sensory nerve roots are cut at the spinal level. The procedure is used to reduce lower limb spasticity permanently and is augmented by intensive rehabilitation for at least two years after surgery to optimise outcomes.
