Popular Method

AbstractBotulinum toxin injection is now recognized as an effective treatment for spasmodic torticollis. Complications of this increasingly popular method of treatment include mild and transient dysphagia, with or without dysphonia, lasting up to four weeks. Two cases of paralysis of vocal cord contralateral to the injected sternomastoid have also been reported. A case of severe dysphagia lasting six weeks associated with ipsilateral vocal cord palsy following botulinum toxin injection is presented. The probable mechanism for these complications is discussed.

Placebo Trial

AbstractBotulinum toxin injection is an effective treatment for spasmodic dysphonia. There are ethical difficulties in performing a controlled placebo trial to assess the effectiveness of this treatment. This paper shows a significantly decreased clinical response following technically poor injections given to patients who respond well to good quality injections.

Diplopia is described as being intractable when there is inability to both fuse the two images and suppress the second image. Intractable diplopia persists despite achieving ocular alignment using either prisms, lenses,vision therapy,extraocular muscle surgery, or botulinum toxin injection. Treatment usually resorts to occluding or fogging the patient’s nondominant eye. Often times, however, adults having other causative mechanisms for supposedly persistent diplopia are able to achieve comfortable single vision with treatment that either establishes fusion or reactivates a preexisting sensory adaptation. This case series reviews these other causes of diplopia.
