Hyperextension of the knee in stance (knee recurvatum) is a common disorder in patients
with spastic cerebral palsy (CP). A group 35 children with CP (47 lower limbs) was divided …

The aim of the study was to confirm the hypothesis of the influence of the dynamic and fixed
equinus deformity on the timing of knee recurvation (hyperextension). According to our …

Background: The purpose of this study is to determine which factors drive patients with
diplegic cerebral palsy to walk without knee recurvatum despite hyperextension of the knee …

Patients with cerebral palsy often have recurvatum or flexion deformities at the knee. To
determine whether these are due to a bony or soft‐tissue abnormality, four angles were …

Recent reports have shown that timing of genu recurvatum (GR) might be caused by
different underlying factors and that equinus leads to GR especially during early stance. The …

This study evaluated the differences in muscle–tendon lengths during single limb support
between recurvatum and crouch knee in patients with cerebral palsy. Group I consisted of 14 …

Recurvatum is defined as hyperextension of the knee in the stance phase of gait.
Recurvatum knee is a naturally occurring common gait deviation in those with cerebral …

In children with cerebral palsy (CP), the most common problem at the knee is a flexion
deformity or an alternative definition is limited knee extension. By far the most common …

Primary genu recurvatum (GR) is less investigated and data presenting the prevalence
among patients with bilateral spastic cerebral palsy (BSCP) is lacking in the literature …

Background: Lower limb contractures are a common problem among children with cerebral
plasy (CP). Knee contractures affect both ambulant and non-ambulant children and may …
