Abstract [eng] Cerebral palsy (CP) is caused by developing brain damage and comprises a group of permanent disorders of movement and postural development that cause daily activity limitations [1,2]. This disease has a high probability of resulting in lower extremity strength and walking deficits [3,4]. CP is one of the main causes of disability in childhood [5]. Physiotherapy is a chief component of rehabilitation for children with CP, correcting gait and impro-ving capacity of walking through muscle strength training. The problem is that the standard rehabilitation programs for CP have not been determined yet [4]. The literature indicates that relations-hips between clinical impairments and gait deviations in children with CP can be determined by identifying specific parts of the gait cycle. Integration of these findings could lead to a better unders-tanding of the pathophysiology of gait deviations and, eventually, support individualized treatment planning [6].
