Abstract: | Cerebral palsy (CP) is a non-progressive injury to the developing central nervous system and defines as permanent disorders of the development of movement and posture, causing activity limitation. This neurodevelopmental disorder may lead to spastic unilateral cerebral palsy after early unilateral brain lesions. Physical and rehabilitation medicine has a particular interest in the study of organization and reorganization of the sensorimotor cortex following early brain injury. From neuroscience standpoint, early brain lesions have been shown to induce substantial neural reorganization owing to the higher plasticity in the developing brain. Unilateral injuries either to the motor cortex or the corticospinal tract can lead to different patterns of reorganization of the sensorimotor cortex. Many patients develop ipsilateral corticospinal pathways to control the paretic hand with the non-lesioned hemisphere. This type of reorganization is often observed following unilateral periventricular brain lesions, which damage the corticospinal tracts in the periventricular white matter. In this group of patients, the primary motor cortex has been found to be represented in the non-lesioned precentral gyrus ipsilateral to the paretic side. Inversely, in patients with perinatal unilateral middle cerebral artery stroke, primary motor cortex remains organised in the lesioned precentral gyrus contralateral to the paretic hand. However, regardless of these inter- or intrahemispheric motor representations, the primary somatosensory cortex representation remains in the lesioned hemisphere in both groups. These two types of corticospinal reorganization could influence the efficacy of rehabilitation. |
