OSSCS Surgical Technique Comes as a Blessing for Older Children Suffering from Cerebral Palsy


Allahabad, Uttar Pradesh, India, Thursday, September 01, 2011 -- (Business Wire India) -- In an yet inimitable medical miracle, older children suffering from the stinging, distressing disease of cerebral palsy have been blessed with a ray of new hope of being alleviated from the agony of having to depend on others for life. The path to this overwhelming discovery was initiated and practiced by Dr J K Jain, Consultant Pediatric Orthopedic Surgeon at Trishla Orthopedics Clinic and Rehab Center & Secretary Samvedna Trust, Allahabad.

Cerebral Palsy is a condition of "Damaged Brain" that inhibits the normal functioning of the motor skills and leads to disablement in maintaining body posture. Children afflicted with cerebral palsy depict symptoms of late motor development skills and may also be hearing, speech and visually impaired accompanied by other associated diseases. The very utterance of the two words "Cerebral Palsy" conjures up images of these poor little souls striving to get the fundamental things of life straight. Cannot we do anything to assuage the excruciating mental pain to some extent?

Medical advancement has indeed reached stupendous heights of success and one such phenomenal breakthrough has recently been achieved by means of the Orthopedic Selective Spasticity Control Surgery, abbreviated as OSSCS. The efficacy of this surgery has been witnessed in not only younger children, but among older groups as well, kindling rays of new optimism and prospects for the young people. As Dr Jain puts it, "Now older children with cerebral palsy will also walk by the help of OSSCS Surgical Technique"

Research studies till now had been focusing on proffering treatment for cerebral palsy to the affected children as early in life as possible as brain deformities, at such beginning stages could be molded and trained to one's advantage more easily. Treatment encompassed therapeutic modalities such as NDT, SI, Light Weight Braces and the likes. However, with age, implementing these therapies becomes cumbersome and may show decreased signs of success since deformities tend to get rigid with time and increased body weight.

The advent of OSSCS techniques, entailing deformities of multi-articular muscles as well as normal antigravity mono-articular muscle, has indeed been momentous in the field of diagnosing cerebral palsy. Multi-articular muscles are responsible for hypertonic posture, while their mono-articular counterparts aid in maintaining antigravity dispositions and activities. Through one Single Event Multi Level Surgery or SEMLS, the door is now open for rectifying the fixed contracture and spasticity of the affected long multi-articular muscles of human body. Remarkable results have been spotted post surgery as a child, severely palsied previously, starts demonstrating signs of amelioration that becomes more improved with continuous specialized therapy treatment programs.

The success of OSSCS has been extremely noteworthy, setting a benchmark in the field of medical sciences. The extensive indications of the treatment procedure are truly outstanding mollifying hypertonicity of all parts of the body and have shown successful endeavors in children as old as six years and more. As the eminent Dr J K Jain has claimed to see excellent results by applying the treatment in younger as well as older groups of children for the past five years, supporting the reliability and success of the technique in the field of cerebral palsy. What makes OSSCS stand out is the reduced instance of motor malfunctioning or decreased functioning and absence of any side effects.
