We would like to present the first report of severe acute dystonic reaction after a single administration of metoclopramide during cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia.  During elective cesarean section, a 30-year-old female vomited four times and was treated with 10mg intravenous metoclopramide and 8mg intravenous ondansetron.  Nausea subsided with the antiemetic treatment, but two minutes later, patient had rapid eye blinking, uncontrollable head movement, and became unresponsive.  Bolus of 50mg intravenous diphenhydramine resolved the acute dystonic symptoms within seconds.  Patient was again oriented times three, with no recollection of symptoms, and remained symptom free for the rest of admission.

Abstract Background We report a case in which a list of high-risk pregnant women on cloud-based business communication tools was useful in formulating an anesthetic plan for unscheduled cesarean section. Case presentation A 37-year-old woman, who had been prescribed icosapentate for hypertriglyceridemia, received an antenatal anesthetic evaluation for possible cesarean delivery, and it was agreed that the anesthetic method for emergency cesarean section was general anesthesia if the surgery would take place within 7 days after the discontinuation of the drug, and regional anesthesia if it would take place any time later. Then this agreement was uploaded on the cloud-based business communication tools, and updated until she delivered her baby via unscheduled cesarean section. Conclusions A cloud-based business communication tools was useful in formulating an anesthesia plan for a patient undergoing a cesarean delivery. However, more discussion would be needed to utilize it in security.

Smooth muscle tumors arising in the vulva are rare. Leiomyosarcoma is the most common variant of vulvar sarcoma, and very few cases have been reported during pregnancy. A 36-year-old woman presented with a progressively enlarging vulvar mass during pregnancy, diagnosed as a Bartholin's gland cyst. The lesion was resected at 38 weeks of gestation during cesarean section and diagnosis of myxoid leiomyosarcoma of the vulva was made. Six weeks later the patients were referred to our center and submitted to wide vulvar excision with groin lymph node dissection that revealed the presence of a small residual focus of leiomyosarcoma. At 30 months of follow-up the patient was well without any sign of recurrent disease. Leiomyosarcoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of vulvar masses; progressively enlarging vulvar lesion should be biopsied even during pregnancy. Leiomyosarcoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of vulvar mass.

We describe a patient with severe scoliosis for which corrective surgery was performed at the age of 12. During a previous caesarean section under general anaesthesia pseudocholinesterase deficiency was discovered. Ultrasound guided spinal anaesthesia was performed enabling a second caesarean section under loco-regional anaesthesia.
