Metoclopramide is a dopamine D2-receptor blocking agent commonly used to treat nausea, vomiting, and gastroparesis. Due to their mechanism of action, these drugs can lead to extrapyramidal side effects such as tardive dyskinesia. In this article, we report a case of a nulliparous gynecology patient who developed dyskinetic movements after intraoperative administration of metoclopramide. During further workup after stabilization, she was found to have several risk factors for tardive dyskinesia. As the occurrence of this phenomenon is somewhat rare, this case report aims to discuss the condition, associated risk factors, and differentiation from other diagnoses.
Primary ureteral stump carcinoma is a rare occurrence in patients who receive radical nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Only 11 previous cases have been reported in the literature. We report a case of synchronous bilateral RCC and colon adenocarcinoma with the subsequent development of primary ureteral stump carcinoma that was treated with robotic ureterectomy and bladder cuff excision. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of this presentation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
