Abstract:
Acquired focal dystonia is often precipitated by minor local traumatic injury, resulting in severe pain and disability. An active duty soldier with shoulder dystonia, after a fall, that responded partially to botulinum toxin A is described. Post-traumatic dystonia as a neurological illness is discussed, with emphasis on mechanisms, precipitating causes, differential diagnosis, and treatment implications for battlefield clinicians.
