An allergic reaction to intraarterial nonionic contrast material.
To the Editor: We report an incident of an allergic reaction to a small dose of intraarterial nonionic contrast material that was administered during cerebral angiography in a patient premedicated with steroids and antihistamines. A 23-year-old man with epilepsy was referred for cerebral angiography and Wada testing. These were performed for the purpose of language and memory testing before tem...
متن کاملAnaphylactic Shock Following Nonionic Contrast Medium during Caudal Epidural Injection
Caudal epidural injection is a common intervention in patients with low back pain and sciatica. Even though the complications of fluoroscopically directed epidural injections are less frequent than in blind epidural injections, complications due to contrast media can occur. We report a case of anaphylactic shock immediately after injection of an intravenous nonionic contrast medium (iohexol) du...
متن کاملImmediate Effect of Contrast Medium Injection
The immediate effect of contrast medium injection on left ventricular (LV) volume, stroke volume (SV) and ejection fraction (EF) was evaluated from postoperative LV biplane cineangiograms of 10 patients with 4-6 epicardial markers placed at the time of coronary artery surgery. After calibrating marker distances with respect to volume (r = 0.97-0.99) over one cardiac cycle for each patient, regr...
متن کاملNonionic contrast neurotoxicity after coronary angiography mimicking subarachnoid hemorrhage.
Introduction The incidence of neurotoxic events due to intravascular application of iodinated x-ray contrast media (CM) has decreased markedly since the introduction of nonionic CM [1]. Severe neurotoxic complications are accompanied by disruption of the blood-brain barrier and CM extravasation [1–6]. Coronary angiography involving only nonionic CM has been reported to cause transient cortical ...
متن کاملFatal brain edema after contrast-agent overdose.
Most cases of brain edema after arteriography are associated with focal brain infarction resulting from embolism or other vascular complications of the procedure. Rarely , brain edema not apparently a result of infarction has been reported as a complication of arteriography [1-4] . Available details of such cases are limited, but some authors have attributed the brain edema to a toxic effect of...
