title: Abnormal head posture in a patient with normal ocular motility: Sandifer syndrome.
abstract: The authors describe an unusual presentation of abnormal head posture in a 5-year-old boy. Sandifer syndrome is associated with torticollis and gastroesopheageal reflux. Treating physicians should be aware of non-ocular causes of abnormal head posture in the absence of ocular manifestations.
