Özet

Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a multifaceted neurological disorder that manifests in early childhood and results in a wide array of physical and cognitive impairments. As a leading cause of motor disability in children, CP presents with a spectrum of symptoms, including impaired reflexes, involuntary movements, muscle spasticity, limb paralysis, cognitive deficits, visual and auditory impairments, seizures, and challenges in communication and behavior. The condition is primarily caused by non-progressive brain lesions that impact motor function and posture development, typically occurring during the prenatal, perinatal, or early postnatal periods.
