This document discusses physiotherapy following reconstructive surgeries for conditions like cerebral palsy, polio, and leprosy. It focuses on cerebral palsy, explaining that orthopedic surgery can treat limitations in mobility and help prevent deformities. Common procedures discussed include muscle and tendon lengthening and transfers, tenotomies/myotomies, osteotomies, and arthrodesis. The goal is to improve range of motion, mobility, independence, and quality of life. Selective dorsal rhizotomy is also described as a way to reduce spasticity for some cerebral palsy patients.
