Macedo, F.2011-06-152011-06-152010Nascer e Crescer 2010; 19(2): 131-20872-0754http://hdl.handle.net/10400.16/697ABSTRACT We present a case of a two month old infant with clinical suspicion of congenital torticollis because of lateral flexion of the head and neck since birth. There was no response to physiotherapy and the neck ultrasound was normal. An x-ray of the cervical and dorsal spine showed congenital scoliosis with failure of formation in certain vertebras. The diagnosis of congenital scoliosis must be considered in cases of abnormal tilting of the head and neck.porCongenital scoliosisimagingjournal article
