Lateral Torticollis: Report of a Case Complicated by Horner's Syndrome Lateral Tortikolis: Horner Sendromu ile Komplike Olan Bir Olgu Sunumu

We report a 53-year-old female patient with involuntary head rotation to the right. The diagnosis of spasmodic torticollis with shoulder elevation causing the head rotation to the right side and partial Horner’s syndrome (HS) were established. Complaints of the patient relieved after Botulinum toxin treatment. Ptosis and miosis ameliorated. This case suggested that the signs of HS in our patient were associated with lateral torticollis.
