Abstract

In the horse, acquired cervical torticollis (scoliosis), in which the cervical vertebrae are twisted or crooked, appears to be rare with few reported cases [1,2]. A variety of reasons are reported for acquired cervical scoliosis. Musculo-skeletal causes have included fracture/subluxation of cervical vertebrae, unilateral cicatrical muscle contracture, unilateral muscle rupture, unilateral paralysis subsequent to cervical spinal nerve damage and nutritional dystrophic myo-degeneration [1].
