Cerebral palsy (CP) is a group of non-progressive neurological disorders affecting posture and movement, mostly resulting from perinatal intrauterine disorders to the developing infant brain.
A 6-years old, male patient with spastic cerebral palsy (CP), which predominantly affected the right extremities more than the left ones, required dental surgical treatment of multiple tooth extractions and restorations, under general anesthesia. He received allogenic umbilical cord derived mesenchymal stem cells treatment one time, 6 months before the dental intervention.
The intervention under general anesthesia lasted approximately one hour and concluded successfully. Muscle relaxants were purposely avoided. The anesthesia was reversed and the patient was extubated successfully without complications and there was no sign of any adverse reactions postoperatively.
