Patient's question:
The twins are 1 year and 2 months old, born prematurely by Cesarean section 1 month early. No abnormalities were initially detected. At 4 months, their head circumference was 40 cm, and at 6 months, it was 47 cm, which was not taken seriously. Currently, their head circumference is 50 cm. Yesterday, a cranial CT was performed: bilateral ventricles were slightly widened, and sulci were deepened. They can currently call "Dad" and "Mom," but they cannot speak clearly yet.Doctor's answer:
Hello, there are several causes of cerebral palsy, which may be influenced by adverse factors during pregnancy. It can also be caused by hypoxia during delivery, mechanical injury, or acquired encephalitis, among other issues. There is no particularly effective treatment method, but Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) syndrome differentiation therapy combined with neurotrophic drugs can help alleviate the progression of the condition. Physical therapy and functional exercises after birth can also aid in restoring motor function. In necessary cases, surgical intervention or stem cell transplantation may be considered for treatment.
