Interventions and lower-limb macroscopic muscle morphology in children with spastic cerebral palsy: a scoping review.

Muscle-targeted interventions to remodel muscle morphology are not well understood. Studies reporting macroscopic muscle remodelling following interventions are limited and heterogeneous. Passive stretching may preserve but does not increase muscle length. The effects of isolated botulinum neurotoxin A injections on muscle volume are inconsistent. Isolated strengthening shows no consistent increase in muscle volume or thickness.
