Following surgery, patients will be randomized 1:1 to verum or placebo stimulation for a period of three months. Primary outcome measure is the TWSTRS (Toronto Western Spasmodic Torticollis Rating Scale) - a validated and widely accepted physician-based outcome measure for cervical dystonia. The independent TWSTRS raters are movement disorders specialists unaware of the stimulation status (verum/placebo) and they compare the TWSTRS-score at baseline and 3-months follow-up. Our hypothesis is that stimulated patients will have a significantly better improvement of dystonia as compared to those without stimulation (placebo group).
