The article presents the clinical features of torticollis in children on the basis of the obtained results.

For 2 years, these patients received regular conservative therapy and were registered. 16 (65%) had good results, and 9 (35%) had satisfactory results. To support the results of treatment, 82% of patients needed to continue treatment with conservative methods for another 1.0–1.5 years.
The article presents the results of surgical treatment, i.e. minimally invasive surgery using a new technique, in 72 children with a diagnosis of Torticollis who were hospitalized in National Center for Maternal and Child Welfare, Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan.
