Abstract
On account of the therapeutic consequences, it is important to determine whether a case of torticollis is oculogenic. This may involve problems as shown by the case reported here. Bielschowsky's head-inclination test is an important method of diagnosing paresis of the superior oblique muscle. In cases of paresis of this muscle, good cosmetic results can frequently be obtained by operative intervention.
