Postpoliomyelitis syndrome describes a ¿new¿ weakness, unrelated to any other neurological or medical disorder. It appears 10 to 15 years or more after recovery from the initial paralysis. This new weakness interferes with activities of daily living. The management of postpoliomyelitis syndrome may include orthotics, special exercises, a change in their lifestyle, or a combination of these regimens. This article is especially concerned with knee joint stabilization in various deformities that are weakened by the postpoliomyelitis syndrome.
小儿麻痹后遗症是指一种“新的”肌无力，与任何其他神经或医学病症无关。它在最初的瘫痪恢复后10至15年或更长时间出现。这种新的肌无力会干扰日常生活活动。小儿麻痹后遗症的治疗可能包括使用矫形器、进行特殊锻炼、改变生活方式或这些治疗方案的组合。本文特别关注小儿麻痹后遗症导致的各种畸形膝关节的稳定问题。
