Brief Summary:
Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common physical disability in childhood. CP comprises a heterogeneous group of disorders that are the result of a non-progressive disruption or injury that occurred during fetal brain development or within the first two years of life.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Stem Cell Transplant Complications Other: stem cells Not Applicable

Detailed Description:
This disruption can result in spasticity, dystonia, muscle contractures, weakness and difficulty in coordination that ultimately affects the ability to control movements. Resultant activity limitations may affect gross motor movements, fine motor movements, speech and communication, as well as eating and drinking.
