Background Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors, especially in the bladder. Although many paragangliomas are non-functional, functioning paragangliomas present with many non-specific signs and symptoms, such as hypertension and headache, complicating their diagnosis. Here, we report a case of micturition-induced severe headache associated with a bladder paraganglioma. Case description: This report describes a severe headache disorder triggered by micturition and associated with a bladder paraganglioma in a middle-aged woman. Her pain occurred consistently after micturition, beginning from the left side of the nose and gradually extended to the forehead and the parietal and occipital regions. The headaches lasted 5–10 min. Removal of the paraganglioma completely eliminated the patient’s pain syndrome. Conclusion This case elucidates the association between micturition-triggered headaches and bladder paragangliomas. The presence of a post-micturition severe headache should suggest the possibility of a bladder paraganglioma.

Motor Tics

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterized by a combination of multiple motor tics and at least one phonic tic. TS patients often have associated behavioral abnormalities such as obsessive compulsive disorder, attention deficit and hyperactive disorder. Coprolalia, defined as emission of obscenities or swearing, is one type of complex vocal tic, present in 8% to 26% of patients. The pathophysiology of coprolalia and other complex phonic tics remains ill-defined. We report a patient whose complex phonic tic was characterized by repetitively saying "breast cancer" on seeing the son of aunt who suffered from this condition. The patient was unable to suppress the tic and did not meet criteria for obsessive compulsive disorder. The phenomenology herein described supports the theory that complex phonic tics result from disinhibition of the loop connecting the basal ganglia with the limbic cortex.
