What is it about?
Surgical treatment of Congenital Muscular Torticollis traditionally involve transecting sternocleidomastoid muscle at different levels but doesn't generate any improvement in its inner structure. With this novel approach we can obtain an scarless functional and aesthetic improvement without complex surgical maneuvers.
