Instrumental gait parameters in people with Multiple Sclerosis and spasticity: a systematic review

Paolo De Blasiis, Allegra Fullin, Giulia Casu, Edoardo Bianchini et autres

This systematic review aims to identify and summarize the quantitative outcome measures evaluated by instrumental gait analysis in people with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and spasticity. Spasticity is the most prevalent symptom of MS that significantly impacts walking ability and quality of life, …

Iliopsoas Tenotomy in Patients With Neurological Diseases. A Novel Closed Technique Using an Ultrasound-Guided Minimally Invasive Approach in Neuro-Orthopaedics

Paolo Zerbinati, Isabella Tristano, Davide Glorioso, Jonathan Bemporad

The iliopsoas tenotomy aims at correcting the impaired hip extension that compromises patients' ability during gait, creating discomfort during postural transfers and prolonged sitting. The standard, open approach adopted for neurological disorders requires general anesthesia and sutures, with considerable odds of adverse …

Post-stroke flexed elbow deformity management: consensus opinion from an international Delphi expert panel

Marjorie Salga, Vincent T. Carpentier, Laure Gatin, Thierry Deltombe et autres

BACKGROUND: Poststroke flexed elbow deformity is a frequent and disabling abnormal joint posture that impairs function, hygiene, and quality of life. Despite its clinical impact, assessment strategies and treatment sequencing remain heterogeneous, fragmented across disciplines, and poorly standardized. OBJECTIVES: To establish an …

A survey on the short to medium-term satisfaction of neurological patients treated by functional surgery for the correction of limb deformities

Paolo Zerbinati, Davide Mazzoli, M. Galletti, Giacomo Basini et autres

Objectives Functional surgery (FS) is often used to correct congenital or acquired deformities in neurological patients. Along with functional results, short- and medium-term patient satisfaction should always be considered a key goal of surgery and rehabilitation. The aim of this study is …

Short-term reduction of ankle spasticity after surgical lengthening of the triceps surae in chronic post-stroke patients: a retrospective cohort study

M. Galletti, Davide Mazzoli, Paolo Zerbinati, Chiara Rambelli et autres

Introduction In post-stroke patients with equinovarus foot deformity (EVFD), soft tissue rearrangements may contribute to muscle overactivity when a muscle is stretched or tension is applied. Therefore, we investigated the effects of surgically restoring the triceps surae (TS) length and lengthening ability …

Lateral Pectoral Nerve Identification through Ultrasound-Guided Methylene Blue Injection during Selective Peripheral Neurectomy for Shoulder Spasticity: Proposal for a New Procedure

Paolo Zerbinati, Jonathan Bemporad, Andrea Massimiani, Edoardo Bianchini et autres

Internally rotated and adducted shoulder is a common posture in upper limb spasticity. Selective peripheral neurectomy is a useful and viable surgical technique to ameliorate spasticity, and the lateral pectoral nerve (LPN) could be a potential good target to manage shoulder spasticity …

Short-term effects of foot surgery on walking-related pain, function, and satisfaction in patients with Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease: a prospective cohort study

Giacomo Basini, Chiara Rambelli, M. Galletti, Paolo Zerbinati et autres

Introduction Patients with Charcot–Marie–Tooth disease (CMT) often suffer from walking-related pain (WRP), muscle weakness, foot deformities, and reduced ankle dorsiflexion (DF), which affects their ability to walk and daily activities. Functional surgery (FS) can restore foot deviations, affecting the loading ability during …

Surgical quadriceps lengthening can reduce quadriceps spasticity in chronic stroke patients. A case-control study

Andrea Merlo, M. Galletti, Paolo Zerbinati, P. Prati et autres

Background Muscle overactivity is one of the positive signs of upper motor neuron lesions. In these patients, the loss of muscle length and extensibility resulting from soft tissue rearrangement has been suggested as a contributing cause of muscle overactivity in response to …

Foot Assessment Clinical Scales in Charcot-Marie-Tooth Patients: A Scoping Review

Chiara Rambelli, Davide Mazzoli, M. Galletti, Giacomo Basini et autres

Introduction: Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is a slow and progressive peripheral motor sensory neuropathy frequently associated with the cavo-varus foot deformity. We conducted a scoping review on the clinical scales used to assess foot deviations in CMT patients and analyzed their metric properties. …

Indices of Loading and Propulsive Ability in the Gait of Patients With Chronic Stroke With Equinus Foot Deviation: A Correlation Study

Davide Mazzoli, Giacomo Basini, P. Prati, M. Galletti et autres

In literature, indices of overall walking ability that are based on ground reaction forces have been proposed because of their ease of administration with patients. In this study, we analyzed the correlation between the indices of dynamic loading and propulsion ability of …

Long‐term walking ability and patient satisfaction after lower limb functional surgery in patients affected by Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease: A retrospective study

Irene Carantini, Andrea Merlo, Donatella Esposito, Paolo Zerbinati et autres

Structural foot deformities consequent to Charcot Marie Tooth (CMT) can be treated by functional surgery (FS). This study aims to evaluate both long-term walking ability and patients' satisfaction in CMT subjects who underwent FS during their lifetime. We conducted a retrospective observational …
