Acute dystonia mimicking angioedema of the tongue: a video-illustrated case.

We report a case of acute dystonia of the face, jaw and tongue caused by metoclopramide and mimicking angioedema. The patient had attacks for several years before the correct diagnosis was made and we present the first ever published video footage of an attack. This adverse drug reaction is known, but might be underdiagnosed since it can mimic a wide range of other diseases.
