Buthaina was born premature, during the 25th week. The birth went ok and the birth weight was 900g. She was living in an incubator for 2 month. She was born with a hip joint, knee joint and ankle joint contracture. When she was 8 months old, she could crawl, but her posture was abnormal. When she was 3 years old, she was able to sit up but the lower limbs were unable to separate. When she was 4 years old, she could stand up with some assistance. When she was 5 years old, she could walk with some assistance. Her hip joints, knee joints and ankle joints were flexed, with the flexion of the knee joints being the most serious. Buthaina was able to communicate with others. She was also able to engage in daily activities like brushing her teeth, washing herself, and dressing herself, but she would occasionally lose her balance. Buthaina began school when she was 8 years old, and graduated from high school. When she was 4 years old, she was diagnosed with spastic bilateral paralysis in England and received physical and occupation therapy. When she was 15 years old, she was diagnosed with cerebral palsy and spastic bilateral paralysis; the doctors suggested that she continue participating in the physical and occupational therapy.

When Buthaina's family members became aware of our medical center from the internet, and how our treatment is affective for treating cerebral palsy, they made the decision to come here to see how we might be able to help.

During the examination of the nervous system, the muscle strength of both upper limbs was level 5-, the muscle strength of both lower limbs was level 4. The muscle tone of upper limbs wad normal.The muscle tone of both lower limbs was high, about level 2. The tendon reflexes of both upper limbs were normal, the patellar tendon reflex was slightly positive. The contracture of the hip joints, knee joints and ankle joints were quite noticeable. There was no amyotrophy in the limbs. Buthaina had difficulty getting up and difficulty turning around and could only turn slowly. The lower limbs were flexed which caused a scissors-like gait when she walked. The bilateral abdominal reflex was normal. The bilateral Hoffmann's sign was positive, the bilateral sucking reflex was negative, the bilateral palmomental reflex was positive, the bilateral Babinski's sign was positive. There were no obvious abnormalities to the sensory system. The finger-to-nose test was stable, the digital opposition test and alternate motion was slow. The bilateral heel-knee-shin test was also slow. During the Romberg's test, Buthaina couldn't separate her feet and had difficulty maintaining her balance when this was attempted. There were no signs of meningeal irritation.

Before the stem cell treatment, we initially gave Buthaina a complete examination, and she was diagnosed with cerebral palsy, spastic bilateral paralysis. Then we administered the self stem cells activation treatment and implanted the stem cells in order to repair the damage to the neurons. Buthaina received treatment to improve the blood circulation to increase the blood supply to the damaged neurons and to give nourishment to them. She was given anti-free radical treatment. Buthaina also received physical rehabilitation training to improve the motor functioning of all four limbs.

After the completion of the treatment, Buthaina was able to stand up independently and move at a quicker speed. The muscle strength of the lower limbs had improved. She was now able to walk 6 steps by herself, and the lower limbs can now be separated. The torsion of the trunk and her posture is better than before. Buthaina can walk more easily and the pain in both the lower limbs and her back has decreased.

Just before Buthaina was discharged, the muscle strength of the lower limbs was about level 4+, the muscle tone of both lower limbs was normal. The patellar tendon reflex was still slightly weak. The bilateral palmomental reflex was positive, but has decreased. The contracture of the hip joints, knee joints and ankle joints were decreased. Buthaina can now do the digital opposition test and alternate motion tests more easily. The bilateral heel-knee-shin test is able to be performed quicker than before.

When Buthaina's father saw the progress his daughter had made, he expressed his satisfaction to the doctors concerning the outcome of the treatment.
