| spasmodic torticollis |
A form of dystonia involving the muscles of the neck, and therefore called "cervical dystonia." As a result of the abnormal involuntary contractions of the neck muscles, the head may be rotated, tilted, flexed, extended, or any combination of these postures. The movements may be quick, sustained, or patterned and, therefore, may be associated with tremor.
