Comparison in Therapeutic Outcome of Ultrasound-guided Botulinum Injections for Limb Spasticity Versus Dystonia.
BT injections for limb spasticity and dystonia are partially effective. Nonetheless, the dropout rate is high. While BT injections are more effective in relieving pain for dystonia compared to spasticity, disease severity gradually improves over time in treated patients with spasticity but not with dystonia.
