Cerebellar stimulation for chronic extensor-flexor rigidity and opisthotonus secondary to hypoxia. Report of two
Journal of Neurosurgery
|September 1, 1980
Abstract:
Two patients with chronic hypertonus (in a decerebrate state) as a result of hypoxia are described. Long-term cerebellar stimulation markedly modified their extraordinarily severe extensor-flexor rigidity phenomena that had resulted in chronic opisthotonus.
