Post-operative neck complaints are not an uncommon finding following adenotonsillectomy. However, non-traumatic subluxation of the atlantoaxial joint (Grisel's syndrome) should be considered in cases of persistent neck pain and stiffness. An early diagnosis and adequate treatment of this rare condition is mandatory to prevent potentially serious complications. We describe three cases with persistent torticollis in the post-operative period, discuss the pathogenesis and evaluate the clinical management of these patients.
术后颈部不适是腺样体扁桃体切除术后常见的表现。然而，对于持续颈部疼痛和僵硬的病例，应考虑寰枢关节非创伤性半脱位（格里斯尔综合征）。早期诊断和适当治疗这种罕见疾病对于预防潜在的严重并发症至关重要。我们描述了3例术后持续性斜颈病例，讨论其发病机制并评估这些患者的临床管理。
