  • Title: [Thorburn's posture. A sign of lesion of the cervical cord].
    Author: Renault F, Duprey J.
    Journal: Arch Fr Pediatr; 1989 Apr; 46(4):273-5. PubMed ID: 2751397.
    Abstract:
    In two infants hypertonia of the scapular muscles (C5-C6 level) associated with flacid palsy in other muscles of the upper limb produced an unusual posture. This one, described in adults by Thorburn, suggests a traumatic or ischaemic lesion of the cervical cord.
