Torticollis is seen at all ages, from newborns to adults. It can be congenital or postnatally acquired.

Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery, 1991
Torticollis is a common clincial sign that is found in a variety of disorders. Childhood torticollis differs from the adult form in that congenital types are common and many frequently encountered disorders found in adults are unusual. Pediatric torticollis related to otolaryngologic conditions is reviewed, and three illustrative cases are presented.

We report six cases of torticollis precipitated by neck trauma. The dystonia began 1 to 4 days after the trauma and differed clinically from idiopathic torticollis by marked limitation of range of motion, lack of improvement after sleep ("honeymoon period"), and absence of geste antagonistique.

Survey of Ophthalmology, 1986
Torticollis can arise from nonocular (usually musculoskeletal) and ocular conditions. Abnormal head position for ocular reasons is usually assumed in order to maintain binocularity and/or to optimize visual acuity. A variety of conditions may be responsible. The sensory organ of position sense, the labyrinth, lies within the inner ear and it relates to

Spasmodic torticollis is a distressing condition, characterised by involuntary and intermittent spasm of neck muscles, which in time become hypertrophied. It should be distinguished from a tic. Its incidence has been estimated at 1 in 1200 psychiatric referrals.
