[Microvascular compression of the accessory nerve in torticollis spastica]

[Article in Russian]

The paper deals with the pathogenesis of torticollis spastica and potential modes of their treatment.

Despite comparatively small materials, much higher efficiency of micro-decompression of the accessory nerve is shown.
