Abstract

Treatment of adolescents with cerebral palsy often presents clinical problems that differ from those encountered when treating younger children with cerebral palsy. Muscle contractures, which may not yield to traditional therapeutic exercise, may be a problem. The purpose of this case report is to describe the use of serial casting in the treatment of knee joint flexion contractures in an adolescent with cerebral palsy.
