SDR has been shown to reduce the number of additional orthopedic surgeries needed over the course of a child\u2019s life. In most cases, spasticity doesn\u2019t return,\u201d continued Dr. Pople.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The SDR performed on Aiden at Sidra Medicine, was highly specialized and is considered possibly the first of its type in the region for the improvement of mobility in a pediatric patient with Cerebral Palsy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Aiden\u2019s journey of care at Sidra Medicine<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eight year old Aiden has cerebral palsy (CP) and visual impairments. &nbsp;His CP causes spasticity that leads to leg stiffness and interferes with his ability to walk, causing him to use a wheelchair for mobility. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aiden\u2019s parents sought to find the best care possible for their son, and tried a number of different therapies including stem cell therapy in the USA, before seeking a treatment program at Sidra Medicine in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/sid-website-content\/2025\/03\/7f11d44f-sidra-medicine-aiden-patient-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12941\" style=\"width:786px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/sid-website-content\/2025\/03\/7f11d44f-sidra-medicine-aiden-patient-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/sid-website-content\/2025\/03\/7f11d44f-sidra-medicine-aiden-patient-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/sid-website-content\/2025\/03\/7f11d44f-sidra-medicine-aiden-patient-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/sid-website-content\/2025\/03\/7f11d44f-sidra-medicine-aiden-patient.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Aiden was referred to Sidra Medicine\u2019s Rehabilitation Medicine department to help with his spasticity issues. After consultation with experts at the Movement Disorders Clinic, it was decided that he would benefit from a surgery called Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy (SDR). &nbsp;The goals of the surgery were to make it easier for him to move, so that he could walk in his home with a walker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>SDR is a spinal surgery usually performed on children with spastic Cerebral Palsy, especially those who have not responded to therapy and medications. &nbsp;SDR can improve mobility, reduce pain and relieve lower limb spasticity. SDR is a highly specialized neurosurgical procedure that is offered by only a handful of pediatric hospitals worldwide and very few surgeons are trained in the technique.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aiden\u2019s parents said: \u201cOur goal has always been to ensure that Aiden receives the best possible care. We have researched and traveled extensively always keeping up to date on the latest procedures so that Aiden can achieve some level of independence despite his cerebral palsy. Imagine our relief when we found out that one of the foremost neurosurgeons, Dr. Ian Pople, who specializes in selective dorsal rhizotomy, was based here in Doha!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To prepare for the surgery, Aiden\u2019s pre-operative function was carefully reviewed by the team at the Movement Disorders Clinic, including therapists who determined his potential for improvement and discussed the post-operative therapy plan with the parents. His case was also reviewed by the clinic\u2019s neurophysiologists and neurologists to identify the nerves in the lower part of his spinal cord that were causing the spasticity issues in his legs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sidra.org\/doctors-and-nurse-practitioners\/ian-pople\">Dr. Ian Pople<\/a>, Division Chief of Neurosurgery at Sidra Medicine said: \u201cTiming was critical regarding the selective dorsal rhizotomy procedure on Aiden. It was important that Aiden would be able to withstand undergoing such a complex surgery and it took three years before we felt confident that he was ready. The clinical team felt that Aiden was a prime candidate for the procedure where certain nerves would be cut to permanently reduce the spasticity in his legs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aiden\u2019s surgery was performed in Sidra Medicine\u2019s state-of-the-art neurosurgery operating room. &nbsp;The surgery took six hours and involved a team of two surgeons, a neurologist and two neurophysiologists who monitored Aiden\u2019s spinal cord function during the surgery. &nbsp;Together they determined which nerves were causing the most spasticity and carefully sectioned those sensory nerves to reduce the spasticity in his legs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After the surgery, Aiden stayed at Sidra Medicine for nearly three weeks to begin rigorous rehabilitation that he will continue as an outpatient for up to one year. &nbsp;His parents are also committed to helping him perform a home-based, daily therapy program. Following his intensive post-operative care, Aiden\u2019s parents have seen easier movements in his legs, with his strength improving by the day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sidra.org\/doctors-and-nurse-practitioners\/lisa-thornton\">Dr. Lisa Thornton<\/a>, Division Chief of Rehabilitative Medicine at Sidra Medicine said: \u201cOur clinic sought to customise Aiden\u2019s care and treatment program and we are very happy with his progress. When SDR is followed by months of rehabilitation, it can improve a child&#8217;s ability to move and control their muscles. Following his surgery and while undergoing therapy, Aiden is now able to support his own weight aided by a walker. &nbsp;This is a significant milestone. Through further physiotherapy and rehabilitation, we expect to see more improvement in his mobility and strength.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aiden will always have Cerebral Palsy and will need a walker to help support him, however after the SDR surgery at Sidra Medicine his spasticity is gone and it is now easier for him to move. His SDR surgery is considered the first of its type in the region for the improvement of mobility in a pediatric patient with Cerebral Palsy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aiden\u2019s parents said: \u201cWe are immensely grateful for the care at Sidra Medicine which was absolutely first class. From day one, everyone we encountered from the nurses, to the patient care partners, therapists and physicians have been lovely. Seeing the progress Aiden continues to make is empowering. The day he stood aided by a walker was a day that changed all of our lives. It gave us hope that we made the right decision and each day is a day of hope and inspiration as we work together with the team at Sidra Medicine to help Aiden build his strength.
