Tails' sign
From WikiLectures
'Cvostk's sign is positive if, when tapped on the branch of the facial nerve, preferably above the parotid gland or closer to the corner of the mouth, a homolateral twitch of the upper lip filter is evoked towards the side of the tap. It is a manifestation of increased idioneural irritability.[1] The symptom is usually positive in hypocalcemia. [2]
The symptom is named after a Czech internist, František Chvostek, who worked in Vienna in the 19th century.[3]
