Abstract
Distal elongation of the hamstrings was performed for contracture due to neurogenic disorders in 66 patients. A follow-up study on 34 of the patients with cerebral palsy is reported here. The success of the operation was judged by functional evaluation including joint measurement and gait analysis. The advantages of this operation and the need for prolonged aftercare are discussed.
