The aim was to evaluate the activation characteristics of the muscles involved in patients with Pisa Syndrome with surface electromy- ography (EMG) during walking after Botulinum Toxin TypeA treatment. Methods: 7 patients with Pisa Syndrome underwent Gait Analysis, according to the modified Davis protocol; Subsequently, the patients underwent myometric evaluation of the cervical dorsal and lumbar paravertebra lmuscles and were treated with Onabotulinum toxin typeA (BoTN/A); Conclusions: Our analysis highlights continuous muscle activity in the paravertebral muscles, especially contralateral to the flexion curve.
