Spastic quadriplegia
Spastic quadriplegia, also known as spastic tetraplegia, is a subset of spastic cerebral palsy that affects all four limbs (both arms and legs).
Compared to quadriplegia, spastic quadriplegia is defined by spasticity of the limbs as opposed to strict paralysis. It is distinguishable from other forms of cerebral palsy in that those afflicted with the condition display stiff, jerky movements stemming from hypertonia of the muscles.〔http://www.merriam-webster.com/medlineplus/spastic%20cerebral%20palsy〕
Spastic quadriplegia, while affecting all four limbs more or less equally, can still present parts of the body as stiffer than others, such as one arm being tighter than another arm, and so forth. Spastic triplegia, meanwhile, involves three limbs (such as one arm and two legs, or one leg and two arms, etc.); spastic diplegia affects two limbs (commonly just the legs), spastic hemiplegia affects one or another entire side of the body (left or right); and spastic monoplegia involves a single limb.
== Symptoms ==
Spastic quadriplegia can be detected by the abnormal development of motor skills in children. Symptoms can present themselves as early as three months but are generally seen before the child reaches two years of age. Some warning signs include: a child of more than two months who has stiff legs that scissor and is unable to control his or her head, and a child of more than twelve months who has not developed the ability to crawl or stand.〔http://www.cpfamilynetwork.org/medical-research/cerebral-palsy-news-spastic-cerebral-palsy-facts-treatments-and-outcomes〕
Spastic quadriplegia also presents a range of symptoms that affect the musculature. Many experience contractures, which are defined as joints that cannot be stretched or moved. Clonus is another symptom that is characterized by alternating, rapid muscle contraction and relaxation. This presents itself as tremors and scissoring of the limbs. Distonia, or lasting muscle contractions and tightness, is also often experienced by those affected by spastic quadriplegia. These involuntary muscle contractions may affect the development of structural muscle around the hip and lead to hip dysplasia and dislocation, making it difficult to sit. The combination of these symptoms often makes it difficult for the patients to walk as well.〔 Although the arms and legs of patients are often stiff, the neck is usually limp due to the lack of voluntary muscle control. Some adults have issues with sexual organs such as the ones that control the sphincter (anus) as well and bladder control. These can sometimes be treated with training and stimulation even if the problems have presented for years, some issues can be corrected in many cases with nutrition modification in 90 percent of cases, especially B12. Simulation of the muscles involved can treat some forms of nerve damage, depending on what the issue is. Sexual issues can be difficult for those with this, and sexual acts and stimulation can correct most of the sexual issues.
