In this long-term extension study, a dose of 500 units Dysport was administered by intramuscular injection into the clinically indicated neck muscles in a single dosing session in the first treatment cycle. This was the same dose as given in the preceding study NCT00257660 (Y-47-52120-051). Based on individual safety \& efficacy, subjects could then receive up to 3 subsequent injections with doses titrated in 250 unit steps, to a minimum of 250 units and a maximum of 1000 units. Retreatment occurred approximately 12-16 weeks after the previous injection, with the exact timing based on clinical need.

Change in Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale Total Score From Baseline
TWSTRS is comprised of three different components which are severity, disability \& pain. There is an ordinal scale for each component and the score range for each is the following: for severity from 0 (absence of severity) to 35 (max severity), for disability from 0 (no disability) to 30 (max disability) and for pain from 0 (no pain) to 20 (max pain). TWSTRS total score is the sum of the 3 component scores, with a range from 0 to a maximum of 85. For each treatment cycle, the change in TWSTRS total score is the score at week 4 minus the score at baseline.
Time frame: Week 4 follow-up visit
