Résumé anglais : Preoperative assessment of the patient with cerebral palsy includes assessment of their static deformity (contractures), dynamic deformity (spasticity versus motor control), and their sensibility, in order to integrate a treatment plan based on their age, motivation, and use of the upper limb. Motion laboratory analysis is discussed as a tool that can assist the surgeon in assessment of patterns of spasticity or control in muscles considered for tendon transfer or lengthening.
