case_images: Shows visual inspection of tongue, which did not reveal any abnormality.. Shows ultrasonography of tongue which revealed dystonic contractions of geniohyoid muscle (arrow from above) and genioglossus muscle (arrow from below).. Shows ultrasonography of tongue after botulinum toxin injection which revealed marked improvement in the dystonic contractions of the muscles.. Shows dystonic movements noted in the region of face (orbicularis oris, mentalis, and corrugator supercilii) along with subtle dyskinetic movements of the pharyngeal region.. Shows ultrasonography of tongue and pharynx which revealed dyskinetic movements of the pharyngeal region (arrow), disproportionately more than any other region.. Shows marked improvement in dystonic contractions of the orofacial region after initiation of the treatment.. Shows ultrasonography of tongue and pharynx revealing near resolution of dyskinetic movements of the pharyngeal region after initiation of the treatment.. Shows visual inspection revealing jaw closure dystonia, frontalis and corrugator supercilii dystonia/dyskinesia, and blepharospasm without any abnormality of the tongue.. Shows ultrasonography of tongue which revealed frank dystonic contractions of the geniohyoid muscle (arrow) and subtle contractions of genioglossus muscle.
