Congenital torticollis due to sternomastoid aplasia with unilateral cerebellar hypoplasia: a rare association.

V R Ravi Kumar1, S Raja Sabapathy, Vijayagiri Duraisami.   

Abstract

Congenital torticollis is most commonly caused by sternomastoid contracture. Aplasia of sternomastoid muscle causing congenital torticollis, though rare, has been reported. However the association of cerebellar hypoplasia with sternomastoid aplasia is extremely rare. The authors describe a case of congenital torticollis due to absence of the left sternomastoid with ipsilateral cerebellar hypoplasia, confirmed by MRI.
