We report the unusual case of tear production with painless micturition, only once described in the medical literature in 1932. We report on a 3-year-old girl with painless "watering of her eyes every time she passed urine" present since birth and occasionally associated with a vacant look and dropping of her jaw. With only 1 previously described case in the literature but clear evidence from online fora, we describe how this phenomenon may be more common than previously thought.
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.
