[Cervical dystonia: ways to improve the effectiveness of botulinum therapy].

Cervical dystonia is one of the most complex movement disorders, in which type A botulinum toxin (BTA) preparations are used. A significant number of types of dystonic installation of the head and neck determines a large number of different muscle patterns, sometimes with outwardly similar manifestations. Objective difficulties in choosing the actual pathological muscle pattern for subsequent injection in some cases determine the low effectiveness of botulinum therapy.
