Experimental Torticollis in Cats and Monkeys: Effect of Lesions and Drugs
View through CrossRef
AbstractThis chapter provides supporting evidence that torticollis has a frontal and a horizontal component, related to dysfunction involving different systems. The posture and movements of the head are disturbed in a different manner according to the lesion inducing the torticollis. Moreover, the frequent occurrence of mixed forms of torticollies in humans may imply that a unifocal lesion can be responsible for head disturbances that involve interrelated systems. A parallel can be drawn between the variability of responses induced by the drugs in the experimental models of torticollis and the drug responses variability reported in patients with spasmodic torticollis.

Description:
AbstractThis chapter provides supporting evidence that torticollis has a frontal and a horizontal component, related to dysfunction involving different systems.
The posture and movements of the head are disturbed in a different manner according to the lesion inducing the torticollis.
Moreover, the frequent occurrence of mixed forms of torticollies in humans may imply that a unifocal lesion can be responsible for head disturbances that involve interrelated systems.
A parallel can be drawn between the variability of responses induced by the drugs in the experimental models of torticollis and the drug responses variability reported in patients with spasmodic torticollis.
