Abstract EN
Acquired torticollis can be the result of several different pathological mechanisms.
It is generally related to trauma, tumors, and inflammatory processes of the cervical muscles, nerves, and vertebral synovia.
Although upper respiratory tract and neck inflammation are common causes of acute febrile torticollis in children, diseases with as yet undefined relationships may also result in torticollis.
This is the case of spinal arachnoid cyst and pneumonia.
