The authors describe specific effects of prolonged epidural blockade in treatment of contractures of the lower extremity joints in children with cerebral palsy. The method was used in 5 patients aged from 11 to 16 years. The prolonged epidural blockade during 4-5 weeks allowed adequate motor rehabilitation and conditions for learning to walk.
