DEF

Groupe de troubles permanents du développement du mouvement et de la posture, responsables de limitations d'activité, imputables à des évènements ou atteintes non progressives survenus sur le cerveau en développement du fœtus ou du nourrisson.

OBS

Certains auteurs critiquent l'usage du terme «paralysie cérébrale», car il constituerait un anglicisme. D'autres considèrent que les termes «paralysie cérébrale» et «infirmité motrice d'origine cérébrale» auraient une acception plus large qu'«infirmité motrice cérébrale», car ils regroupent les formes avec des atteintes intellectuelles.
