👋 Meet Harriet! Born with cerebral palsy, last year she underwent a selective dorsal rhizotomy or SDR. This procedure can help children with spasticity to improve mobility, reduce pain and relieve lower-limb muscle spasticity. Harriet loves to show off her karate kicks! She even decided to teach her surgeon, Dr. Jeff Leonard a thing or two! Watch to see her incredible progress!

Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy is a procedure used to control the muscle tone of young children who struggle to walk due to spastic diplegia, a form of cerebral palsy. Pediatric neurosurgeon Shenandoah Robinson explains the best candidates for the procedure and other options if the child is not a candidate for the Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy procedure. | Johns Hopkins Children's Center | Facebook
