This project aims to understand how muscle contractions in children with cerebral palsy affect femoral bone growth and deformities. By using musculoskeletal models and simulations, it evaluates the impact of clinical interventions like Botulinum Toxin-A injections on bone health.
Muscle contractions in children with cerebral palsy (CP) cause abnormal musculoskeletal loading, which can lead to bony deformities.
Deformities of the femur are commonly corrected by de-rotation osteotomies.
In children, early clinical interventions, which aim to normalize the loading of the musculoskeletal system, could influence bone growth and prevent the development of bony deformities.
To investigate this assumption, I will use musculoskeletal (MSK) models to calculate the loading conditio…
