    Cerebral palsy is a non-progressive brain disease caused by damage to the motor areas of the brain during fetal development, resulting in disorders of movement. The majority of cases occur during the prenatal period. It can be classified based on clinical type (spastic is most common) and severity of lesion (ranging from mild and independent to severe and bedridden). Common orthopedic deformities include pronation of the forearm, wrist and finger flexion, hip adduction and internal rotation, knee flexion contracture, and equinus foot deformities. Associated features may include sensory deficits, speech and cognitive impairments, and seizures.
