A case of spasmodic torticollis in a 27-year-old man cured by vascular decompression of the spinal accessory root, without any nerve sectioning, is presented. The nerve compression was produced by the posterior inferior cerebellar artery originating from the vertebral artery at the C-1 level, and was released by transposing the artery from the nerve root, using the divided dentate ligament. The patient was completely free from symptoms after a follow-up period of 3 years. The possible causal importance of nerve compression in spasmodic torticollis is emphasized.
本文报道了一例27岁男性痉挛性斜颈患者，通过副神经脊髓根血管减压术治愈，未进行任何神经切断。神经压迫由起源于C-1水平椎动脉的小脑下后动脉引起，通过使用分开的齿状韧带将动脉从神经根移位来解除压迫。随访3年后，患者症状完全消失。强调了神经压迫在痉挛性斜颈中可能的因果重要性。
