A 28 years old male patient (related to an employee of saket hostpital) presented with torticollis since childhood, with severe deformity of neck and face. The neck X-ray revealed scoliosis, making intubation for anesthesia difficult.
A bipolar sternocleidomastoid tenotomy was performed, and a cervical collar given.
