    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Oncology
    • Infectious Diseases

    Background:

    • Acquired non-traumatic torticollis presents a diagnostic challenge with varied potential origins.
    • Differential diagnoses include inflammatory conditions, neoplasms, and central nervous system disorders.

    Observation:

    • This report details three cases of acquired torticollis.
    • Etiologies included osteomyelitis, retropharyngeal carcinoma, and spinal subluxation.

    Findings:

    • The presented cases highlight the broad spectrum of underlying pathologies associated with acquired torticollis.
    • A diverse range of conditions can manifest as acquired torticollis, necessitating a comprehensive diagnostic approach.

    Implications:

    • Persistent torticollis warrants an aggressive diagnostic workup to determine the specific cause.
