Cerebral palsy (CP) is the most common cause of motor disability in children. The largest group of children with CP present with spasticity. Dystonia is estimated to be present in approximately 15% of children with CP, referred to as dyskinetic CP. Still, dystonia in CP remains underdiagnosed. Dystonia and spasticity can occur together in a subgroup of children with CP as well. Dystonia is characterized by fluctuating hypertonia and involuntary movement and postures. Dystonia in children with CP can interfere with motor function, caregiving and comfort. It is important to recognize dystonia in children with CP as specific treatment is indicated. In this paper we describe three cases of children with dystonia in CP and we review the pharmacological treatment options for dystonia in CP and the surgical options including intrathecal baclofen pump and deep brain stimulation.
