The Causes of Quadriplegia. The primary cause of quadriplegia is a spinal cord injury, but other conditions such as cerebral palsy and strokes can cause a similar appearing paralysis. The amount of impairment resulting from a spinal cord injury depends on the part of the spinal cord injured and the amount of damage done.
Monoplegia is a condition involving the nervous system in which a muscle group, single muscle, or single limb is paralyzed. A closely related condition is monoparesis, in which people experience weakness in a single limb, muscle group, or muscle. Both conditions can be caused by a range of issues, with cerebral palsy being a very common cause of monoplegia. Some treatment options are available, depending on what is causing the paralysis.
