Torticollis: Differential Diagnosis, Assessment and Treatment,
Surgical Management and Bracing fulfills a need, long overdue. To
provide pediatric physicians, orthopedists, surgeons, physical
therapists, occupational therapists, and family physicians with a
systematic approach to the assessment and treatment of congenital
muscular torticollis, this important guidebook gives you vital
information on torticollis and its impact on the growth and
development of children. Underscoring the importance of early
intervention, Torticollis covers the differential diagnosis of this
disorder, its conservative management, the advantages of a team
approach to management, the selection of appropriate treatment
techniques and pathways, and the relationship between torticollis
posture and development of postural control and balance.From pages
packed with useful information and amply illustrated, you will
learn about the various causes of torticollis, the guidelines for
assessment and timing of treatment, the main goals of treatment
intervention, and when surgery is necessary. Torticollis discusses
the fabrication and use of custom-made neck collars to help resolve
lateral head tilt and postoperative splinting. Through the book's
well-organized and clear discussions, you will also learn about:
conservative management outcome surgical intervention plagiocephaly
hemihypoplasia ocular torticollis evaluation guidelines motor skill

range-of-motion and strength manual therapy intervention

how to detect torticollis early and differentiate nonmuscular

entire musculoskeletal system, how to assess motor development,
postural control, and balance, and how to develop an exercise
treatment plan. Nowhere else will you find such a comprehensive
overview of this disorder, the challenges it presents, the progress
that has been made, the interventions that work, and the research
that needs to be done!
