Embouchure dystonia: a video guide to diagnosis and evaluation
15 East 98th Street, New York, NY 10029 USA.
Background:
Embouchure dystonia is an unusual focal task-specific dystonia affecting the muscles that control the flow of air into the mouthpiece of a brass or woodwind instrument. The complexity of the embouchure and the relative rarity of the condition pose barriers for recognition and management of the disorder.
Methods:
Case review and video survey.
Results:
This paper presents four video compilations that illustrate the rich phenomenology of embouchure dystonia, in order to enhance recognition and diagnosis.
Conclusion:
The phenomenology of embouchure dystonia is discussed.
