Pattern of ophthalmological and orthopaedic manifestations in pediatric patients of torticollis presenting to the tertiary care hospital of north India
Keywords:
pattern ophthalmological, orthopaedic manifestationsAbstract
Introduction: Deformity of the neck and limited motion are commonly seen in pediatric orthopedics. The problem may be simply due to an intrinsic cervical issue or may be the manifestation of other underlying problems. To make a diagnosis of the nature and cause of neck deformity in the newborn is very important. Congenital torticollis is a condition that results in the deviation of a child’s head to one side, with accompanying limitation in the range of motion of the neck. Aims and objective: Objective: To investigate the clinical features and outcome of congenital muscular torticollis (CMT) with passive neck motion limitation according to whether the finding on ultrasonography (US) is normal or abnormal. Material and methods: A total of 32 patients with Congenital Muscular Torticollis (CMT) who met eligibility criteria were included: age at presentation 6 month to 1 year, limitation of passive neck rotation or lateral flexion were included in this study. Patients underwent physiotherapy and were followed-up monthly. The clinical research with torticollis at the Variety Center for Craniofacial Rehabilitation was done from 2019 to 2021 retrospectively. Clinical records, standardized medical photographs, and cephalometric radiographs of the affected patients were examined.
