Rectus femoris transfer 분당서울대학교병원 이승열
Rectus femoris muscle • Origin • Anterior Inferior Iliac Spine and Ilium above toe acetabulum
Insertion • Quadriceps tendon to base of patella and onto tibial tuberosity via the patellar tendon • Nerve to muscle • Femoral nerve (L2-L4)
One of m/c gait abnormality in patients with spastic CP • Typical finding • Decreased ROM of knee during swing phase • Foot clearance problem • Reduced gait velocity • Reduced step length
Rectus femoris transfer • Conventional treatment
Indication • Positive Duncan-Ely sign
Gait analysis Decreased knee flexion in swing Decreased and delayed peak knee flexion in sweing
Dynamic electromyography • Pathological increased activity of the rectus femoris muscle
Keep the rectus as a hip flexor • Convert the rectus into a knee flexor??? • Elimination of the rectus femoris activity
Study plan • Patients • 321 pts • Factors affecting the results of RFT • Age • Gender • Anatomical type • Functional scale (GMFCS level) • SEMLS concomitant with RFT
Long term results • LMM? • Gait analysis (knee sagittal motion) • GDI
Isokinetic muscle strength • Isometric muscle strength
Hip • Flexion/extension • Adduction/abduction • Knee • Flexion/extension • Ankle • Dorsiflexion/plantarflexion • Inversion/eversion
