Hypertrophy of the Spinalis Cervicis Muscle in Cervical Dystonia

BACKGROUND: Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT) is the first line treatment for cervical dystonia (CD) and treatment outcome significantly depends on the correct identification of the muscles involved. PHENOMENOLOGY SHOWN: In a case with insufficient response to BoNT treatment further work up with magneti...

description BACKGROUND: Botulinum neurotoxin A (BoNT) is the first line treatment for cervical dystonia (CD) and treatment outcome significantly depends on the correct identification of the muscles involved. PHENOMENOLOGY SHOWN: In a case with insufficient response to BoNT treatment further work up with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the neck revealed a hypertrophic spinalis cervicis muscle, that is not commonly involved in CD. EDUCATIONAL VALUE: This highlights the use of MRI for muscle selection in treatment refractory CD cases.
