摘要
Object: To report the outcome of patients with selective denervation and resection of cervical muscles for spasmodic torticollis. Methods: We reviewed 362 cases of surgically treated spasmodic torticollis. 207 patients were followed from 2 years to 29 years. Results: Total or marked relief of symptoms with preservation of normal of nearly normal movements has been obtained in 87.9%. Conclusion: This procedure may be recommended if one to two years of conservative therapy does not offer satisfactory relief of symptoms. Copyright (C) 2001 S. Karger AG, Basel.
