Tardive Syndrome

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.

Rare Presentation

INTRODUCTIONIn Children with Type 1 diabetes mellitus, embedment of Continuous glucose monitor sensor wire is a rare complication. Case Report We herein report a rare presentation of embedment of continuous glucose monitor sensor wire in a 5year old girl known to have T1DM. She presented after 1year 2month of being on the CGM with a 2-days history of a lump under the skin of her anterior abdominal wall which was confirmed on ultrasound scan as embedded sensor wire in the subcutaneous tissue of anterior abdominal wall. She was discussed with surgeon due to parental anxiety who reviewed her with the images and offered surgical removal of the sensor wire. She was discharged following a day case removal of the sensor wire with no follow up arranged.METHODSInformation for the report was retrieved from medical records after obtaining informed consent from the parents. DISCUSSIONThe definitive management of embedded CGM sensor is often conservative. Surgical retrieval of the sensor is recommended if suspicious of infection or portion of the sensor that is visible above the skin. In our case it was decided to remove the sensor wire surgically because of parental anxiety and choice.1904 The 8th Congress of the European Academy of Paediatric Societies - EAPS 2020Poster PresentationCONCLUSIONContinuous glucose monitoring sensor break and imbedded under the skin is a rare condition and management is often conservative. It worth being aware of the indications for investigation and possible surgical intervention such as overlie infection, visible part of the sensor above the skin, painful lump or patient’s choice.

Caucasian Male

Erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli, a rare condition of unknown etiology, was first described by Kitamura et al. from Japan in 1960. It is characterized by a triad consisting of well-demarcated erythema, hyperpigmentation, and follicular papules. We report the case of a 50-year-old Caucasian male, who had asymptomatic symmetrical facial lesions since the age of 42. His family history was unremarkable. Published erythromelanosis follicularis faciei et colli cases of the last 10 years are summarized in this report to demonstrate the variability and differences in the clinical presentation of this uncommon diagnosis.

AbstractRectus abdominis is a long strap like muscle that extends along the entire length of anterior abdominal wall. Normally the rectus abdominis arises by two tendons. The larger lateral tendon attached to the crest of the pubis, pubic tubercle up to pectineal line. The medial tendon is attached to the pubic symphysis. The fleshy fibers of rectus abdominis replaced by aponeurosis below the umbilicus was found during the routine dissections of a middle aged female cadaver at Dr. Pinnamaneni Siddhartha Medical College, Chinnavutapalli, Andhra Pradesh, India. The knowledge of partial or complete absence of rectus abdominis and other anterior abdominal wall musculature is of immense importance for the General surgeon, Anatomist and the Gastroenterologist.

A 29-year-old female had presented to surgical outpatient's department complaining of lump in the anterior abdominal wall. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a solid degenerated tumor in the anterior abdominal wall. It was surgically excised, and histopathology confirmed it to be “ancient” schwannoma. To our knowledge, this is the second reported case of an abdominal wall ancient schwannoma in the medical literature.
