Descriptive Epidemiology of Cervical Dystonia
Tremor and Other Hyperkinetic Movements, 2013 Background Cervical dystonia (CD), the most common form of adult‐onset focal dystonia, has a heterogeneous clinical presentation with variable clinical features, leading to difficulties and delays in diagnosis. Owing to the lack of reviews specifically focusing on the frequency of primary CD in the general population, we performed a systematic ...
