Omohyoid muscle syndrome has a characteristic feature of a protruding lateral neck mass during swallowing. We present a case of omohyoid muscle syndrome diagnosed based on the clinical presentation and a dynamic imaging study. Botulinum toxin was injected into the inferior belly of one omohyoid muscle, and the neck mass resolved.
