Congenital muscular torticollis: Early and intensive treatment is critical. A prospective study

Abstract

In patients with early treated congenital muscular torticollis, there is no place for surgical treatment. This group of patients can be successfully treated using an intensive protocol of passive stretching exercises. In addition, this treatment protocol has a very short treatment duration compared with other standardized protocols. A successful outcome depends primarily on good cooperation with the parents, especially in developing countries.
