The aim of study was to assess the influence of aerobic exercise on inhibitory control of executive functions in spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Sixty children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy were enrolled in this study and were assessed for eligibility. Their aged ranged from seven and eleven years. They were assigned randomly into two equal groups. Group (A) the study group received aerobic exercise in addition to selected physical therapy program.
