Abdominal Wall Dyskinesia: Case Report.

ABSTRACT: The clinical presentation of repetitive choreiform involuntary movements of the anterior abdominal wall was first introduced as "belly dancer's dyskinesia." Etiologies of this rare condition include idiopathic causes, medication inducement, or post-abdominal surgery. We report a case of orobuccal stereotypic movements and abdominal wall dyskinesia secondary to prochlorperazine intake. The movements began 2 weeks after cessation of prochlorperazine. The patient took this dopamine receptor-blocking medication for 6 months to treat nausea due to chemotherapy. To our knowledge, abdominal wall dyskinesia as a tardive syndrome of prochlorperazine has not been previously reported.

Spigelian hernia in the right upper abdominal wall: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundSpigelian hernia (SH) is rare and constitutes less than 2% of all hernias. It is reported that more than 90% of SHs lie in the "Spigelian belt", but SH in the upper abdominal wall is extremely uncommon. Here, we report a case of SH in the right upper quadrant of abdomen.Case presentationA 38-year-old female was admitted to hospital with complaints of abdominal pain and right upper quadrant mass for 10?days. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) of abdomen revealed the dilated small intestine between the swelling ventral muscles in the right upper abdominal wall which suggested a ventral hernia. The surgeons considered it was a spontaneous hernia because there was no history of surgery or trauma in the upper abdomen. About two hours later, the patient underwent emergency surgery. According to laparotomy, a diagnosis of SH with ileum herniation in the right upper abdominal wall was confirmed. The necrotic ileum segment was resected. Meanwhile the abdominal wall defect was repaired by suturing the internal oblique and transverse muscles to the rectus sheath. The patient had a favorable outcome for 1?year without recurrence.ConclusionA mass and pain in the upper abdominal wall may suggest an atypical SH. SH occurring in the upper abdominal wall is a rare condition with possibility of dire outcome if not managed early.

Desmoid tumor of the anterolateral abdominal wall: A rare case report.

Project description:Introduction and importanceDesmoid tumors of the abdominal wall are rare fibroblastic proliferative tissue, included in the group of soft tissue tumors, not metastasizing but locally aggressive as an infiltrating tumor and a source of recurrence.Case presentationThis case report describes a rare case of desmoid tumor of the anterolateral abdominal wall presented with a large mass of the left flank and iliac fossa. The diagnostic was suspected radiologically following an abdominopelvic computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An exploratory laparotomy found a large mass infiltrating the left rectus abdominis muscle, a part of the flat left abdominal muscles, and the left iliac crest. The patient underwent a total resection of the mass involving the left rectus muscle with autoplasty by a pedicled flap of the left LATA fascia with the placement of a bifacial mesh.Histologic analysis of the operatory specimen confirmed the diagnosis of a desmoid tumor of the abdominal wall.The patient has been discharged from the hospital on the fifth day post-operatory with an uneventful recovery; she was in good health after a one-year follow-up.Clinical discussionDesmoid tumors of the abdomen are very rare. Although this tumor is histologically benign, it has the potential of invading vital structures and has a high rate of local recurrence.Histology staining confirms the diagnosis, surgery is the gold standard in the management of this pathology.ConclusionWe highlight the importance of radical surgical excision to avoid desmoid tumor complications and to minimize the recurrence risk.

Extrapelvic endometriosis in abdominal wall scar and PPAR gamma expression: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionEndometriosis is a frequent gynecological disorder. Its findings on the abdominal wall are rare cases, usually reported with a history of former surgery. The activation of PPARy expression could be one of alternative non-hormonal treatment for endometriosis.Presentation of caseA patient, 34 years old, suspected of endometriosis since 5 years ago because of pain during menstruation. Since the last 4 months, she had worsening of dysmenorrhea and palpable lumps during menses. She had previously performed cesarean section surgeries 3 times and a laparotomy cystectomy due to left endometriosis cyst. From ultrasound examination, on the abdominal wall (submusculus) there is a firmly defined hypoechoic mass, sized 32 × 10 × 15 mm, derived from the mass of endometriosis.DiscussionThe endometriosis findings on the abdominal wall are rare cases. Symptoms usually are cyclic pain which is also accompanied by a palpable lump. A meta-analysis of 16 studies concluded that sensory excitatory threshold and pain tolerance approached the lowest value shortly before and during menstruation. In humans, administration of PPARy agonists reduced pain symptoms. Counseling to patients is given about the possibility of recurrence.ConclusionPPAR expressivity assessment has not been used as a target for endometriosis therapy. Further studies separating epithelial tissue and stroma can be performed to prove the role of PPARγ in the pathogenesis of endometriosis.

Amisulpride withdrawal dyskinesia: a case report.

Project description:BackgroundThe effects of antipsychotic drug withdrawal have been inadequately studied. Case reports have described dyskinesia occurring in patients with several antipsychotics withdrawn, but studies on amisulpride withdrawal dyskinesia are lacking.Case presentationA 63-year-old man, who was diagnosed with schizophrenia at age 49, received amisulpride treatment since age 62. The dosage of amisulpride was reduced from 200 to 50 mg/day because of occurrence of akathisia during one admission. Severe withdrawal dyskinesia, mixed with dystonia and akathisia, was noted immediately after the dosage reduction. The abnormal involuntary movement showed improvement 2 weeks later when the dosage was increased to 100 mg/day.ConclusionsWithdrawal dyskinesia and other abnormal involuntary movements could be noted in a patient with reduction of amisulpride dosage or sudden termination. Withdrawal dyskinesia may subsequently lead to persistent tardive dyskinesia. Therefore, withdrawal-emergent dyskinesia should be promptly identified, and appropriate medical interventions should be given early.

Excision of the urachal remnant using the abdominal wall-lift laparoscopy: A case report.

Project description:IntroductionHere, we report the surgical excision of the urachal remnant using the abdominal wall-lift laparoscopy with a camera port in the umbilicus, combined with a small Pfannenstiel incision to optimally treat the bladder apex.Presentation of caseA 21-year-old woman presented with periumbilical discharge and pain on urination. Contrast enhanced CT and MRI showed an abscess in the umbilical region that was connected to the bladder via a long tube-like structure. It was diagnosed as an infected urachal sinus. Partial excision of the umbilical fossa followed by dissection of the urachal remnant was easily performed using the abdominal wall-lift laparoscopy from the umbilicus down to the bladder without pneumoperitoneum or additional trocar placement. A Pfannenstiel incision was made above the pubis to get access to the junction between the urachal remnant and the bladder. Under direct vision, we succeeded in accurately dividing the remnant tract, and we adequately closed the bladder opening with absorbable sutures. This method has the advantage of easily closing peritoneal defects after excision of the urachal remnant with direct sutures under a laparoscopic view from the umbilicus. Cosmetic satisfaction was obtained postoperatively.Discussion and conclusionUrachal sinus excision using the abdominal wall-lift laparoscopy seems to surpass the previously reported methods in term of safety, cosmetics, and adequacy of surgical procedures.

US and MRI features in venous vascular malformation of the abdominal wall. A case report.

Project description:Vascular anomalies are classified as vascular tumors and vascular malformations. Venous vascular malformations are the most common type of vascular malformation. They may be isolated or multiple and they rarely affect the trunk. The authors report a rare case of isolated venous vascular malformation of the abdominal wall with an emphasis on the related MRI and ultrasound (US) features.Vascular anomalies are classified as vascular tumors and vascular malformations.

Levodopa-induced belly dancer's dyskinesia: Case report.

Project description:The first report of an abdominal wall dyskinesia syndrome was published in 1990 by Iliceto et al. (1990), who were the first to use the "belly dancer dyskinesia" (BDD) nomenclature. BDD is a rare syndrome involving repetitive, involuntary, and continuous movements of the abdominal wall muscles (Iliceto et al., 1990). We describe the case of a 79-year-old, right-handed woman who showed symptoms of BDD syndrome after using levodopa due to parkinson's disease (PD). In this report, BDD was treated by stopping levodopa. After 15 days without levodopa, a positive outcome was achieved. The patient no longer exhibited BDD at the six-month and one-year follow-ups.

Misdiagnosed atypical paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia: a case report.

Project description:Paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) is characterized by sudden episodes of involuntary movements. PKD is a very rare movement disorder, and correct clinical diagnosis is often a challenge.We present the case of a 23-year-old female with PKD. The patient showed episodes of twisting movements for 3 years. The symptoms lasted for about 5-10 minutes and subsided spontaneously. She was diagnosed as having epilepsy, and depressive and anxiety disorders successively. However, her symptoms did not alleviate after taking sodium valproate and antidepressants. Though there were no mutations in her PRRT2 gene, carbamazepine was used for treatment and was effective in controlling her symptoms.The clinical features of PKD patients are not always typical; therefore, it is important to distinguish PKD from the other subtypes of paroxysmal dyskinesia and psychogenic disorders.

Adenocarcinoma of the Colon Disguised as Abdominal Wall Abscess: Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Project description:Abdominal wall invasion by cancerous cells arising from the colon with an overlying secondary infection that presents as an abdominal wall abscess has been encountered previously, but such a symptom is rarely the first presentation of colon cancer. There are very few cases reported in the literature.In this case report, we present a case of a 66-year-old male presenting with abdominal wall abscess that was refractory to treatment. The patient later was found to have an abdominal wall invasion by an underlying colonic carcinoma.The purpose of this review is to set forth the proper approach when encountering such cases and emphasize on the significance of keeping a high index of suspicion. We also highlight the need for utilizing proper diagnostic imaging modalities prior to invasive intervention.

Pneumobilia After Penetrating Trauma Abdominal Wall with no Injury to the Biliary Tree- A Case Report.

Project description:Pneumobilia denotes an abnormal connection between the gastrointestinal and the biliary tracts. In the absence of surgically created anastomosis between the bowel and the bile duct, the common causes for pneumobilia are gallstone obstruction, endoscopic interventions or emphysematous cholecystitis. We present the case of a young male with traumatic pneumobilia with gastric perforation and a tear in the mesentery of the small gut following penetrating trauma in the form of stab in the abdomen.
