INTRODUCTION: Cerebral palsy is the leading cause of motor disability in children.
OBJECTIVE: To describe the epidemiological and clinical profiles of cerebral palsy in children seen at the of Bobo-Dioulasso University Hospital.
POPULATION AND METHODS: This is a descriptive cross-sectional study prospectively conducted at the Department of Physical Medicine at the University Hospital of Bobo-Dioulasso over a period of one year from 1 July 2012 to 30 June 2013. Our study population consisted of all children aged between 0 and 15 years received during the study period displaying cerebral palsy symptoms.
RESULTS: We studied 174 patients including 106 boys and 68 girls. The average age was 32.79 months. Etiological factors were dominated by prematurity (34.5%) and cerebral anoxia (25.86%). The main clinical presentations were diplegia (50%), quadriplegia (19.54%), hemiplegia (14.37%), monoplegia (10.34%) and triplegia (5.75%). The most common associated symptoms were epilepsy (15%), eye disorders (12.6%), and hearing problems (10%).
CONCLUSION: Due to its frequency and disabling potential, cerebral palsy is a major public health problem in Burkina Faso. Its support in the African environment is heavily complicated by self-medication and traditional therapy.
