Facial asymmetry in ocular torticollis
Torticollis can arise from nonocular (usually musculoskeletal) and ocular conditions. Some facial asymmetries are correlated with a history of early onset ocular torticollis supported by the presence of torticollis on reviewing childhood photographs. When present in an adult, this type of facial asymmetry with an origin of ocular torticollis should help to confirm the chronicity of the defect a...
متن کاملA case of ocular torticollis.
CASE HISTORY A four month old child with a sixweek history of a head posture and transient squint was referred to a general hospital outpatient department. Obstetric and developmental history were normal. Torticollis secondary to spasm of the trapezius muscle was diagnosed and physiotherapy was instituted.

متن کاملTorticollis secondary to ocular pathology.
We report a series of 15 children, six male and nine female, of average age 20 months, seen at a paediatric orthopaedic clinic with torticollis. Orthopaedic examination revealed a normal range of neck movement in all cases but in seven there was palpable tightness in the absence of true shortening or contracture of the sternomastoid muscle. The patients were prospectively referred for ocular ex...
متن کاملCervico-ocular function in patients with spasmodic torticollis.
The cervico-ocular (COR) and active and passive vestibulo-ocular reflexes (VOR) were measured in seven patients with spasmodic torticollis (ST) and six normal controls. The COR was found to be weak or absent in both groups. The VOR gain was similar in the two groups but five patients had a significant asymmetry of the response. There was no evidence of abnormal cervico-vestibular interaction du...
متن کاملDonders' law in torticollis.
We investigated head movements of patients with spasmodic torticollis toward targets in various directions. These patients, whose severe dystonia was reflected in an abnormal resting head position, appeared to retain a Donders'-type strategy for the control of the rotational degrees of freedom of the head. As in normals, rotation vectors, representing head orientation, were confined to a curved...
