Comes up in a hospital report:
"Die Therapie-Optionen bezüglich der überwiegend dystonen, gering spastischen und deutlich linksbetonten *Tetrasymptomatik* sind schwierig zu beurteilen."
Have found "impacting all four limbs/extremities" in so many words, but am looking for something a bit more cogent.
TIA for your help.

Selected
tetraparesis, quadriparesis
A Tetrasymptomatik (almost) always is some kind of plegia or paresis.
This is the only more cogent option I can think of – although I doubt if that's a common or natural way of rendering the contents of this highly condensed German statement in English.

Thanks Ramey (Personally, I'd consider to make it two phrases and use "involving all four extremities" :-)
