Congenital muscular torticollis may present in late childhood or adulthood with cervical contractures, limited range of motion, pain, and muscular hypertrophy. Seven of eight pediatric and adult patients with congenital muscular torticollis were injected with botulinum toxin type A. Only two patients had a modest benefit with improved range of motion. Early recognition and treatment of congenital muscular torticollis is crucial to prevent subsequent contractures and other complications.
先天性肌性斜颈可能在儿童晚期或成人期出现，伴有颈部挛缩、活动范围受限、疼痛和肌肉肥大。八名患有先天性肌性斜颈的儿科和成人患者中有七人接受了A型肉毒杆菌毒素注射。只有两名患者在活动范围改善方面有一定益处。先天性肌性斜颈的早期识别和治疗对于预防随后的挛缩和其他并发症至关重要。
