| Superficial Structures of Neck To get a better understanding (visual) of the Triangles in the neck refer to: | page 1054 in Moore (5th edition) |
| Superficial Structures of Neck 6.23 Are the 5 branches of the external carotid artery contained in the Carotid Triangle | 6.23 Yes, the beginning parts of those five branches (Dr. Thomas email response to this question) |
| Superficial Structures of Neck 5.2 Explain the other form of Congenital Torticollis: Fibromatosis torticollis (colli) | 5.2 Fibrous (inflammation)tissue develops in SCM while in uterus. This type is NOT treated with manual therapy like the congenital torticollis from a difficult birth is treated. |

| Superficial Structures of Neck 5.4 Explain Aquired Torticollis: spasmodic torticollis | 5.4 Develops in Adults due to Tonic (continuous) or Clonic (intermittent) spasms of 1 SCM. At times, the trapezius on the affected side may also develop spasms. |
