There’s an article over on Angie’s List written by Dr. T.S. Park, who is neurosurgeon-in-chief at the highly rated St. Louis Children’s Hospital and Washington University School of Medicine.
He pioneered using a smaller incision with SDR Surgery, and many neurosurgeon’s have followed suit. It’s an interesting article, though really just a brief introduction to the surgery. Still, if you’re interested in this particular surgery for your child with Cerebral Palsy, it’s worth a read.
