Carbon dioxide as a substitute for iodine contrast in arteriography during embolectomy
نویسندگان
چکیده
Acute limb ischemia can be potentially harmful to the limb and life threatening. Renal failure is a possible outcome associated with release of products of ischemic limb reperfusion. Some authors reported the benefit of performing angiography after embolectomy, even though iodine contrast is also nephrotoxic. We report a case of embolectomy on a patient with renal insufficiency in whom carbon dioxide was used as a substitute for iodine contrast.

Lower limb angiography: a prospective study comparing carbon dioxide with iodinated contrast material in 30 patients.
OBJECTIVE We prospectively compared patients' tolerance for and the usefulness of carbon dioxide (CO2) with iodinated contrast material in the study of lower limb arteries in 30 patients. SUBJECTS AND METHODS We systematically performed digital subtraction angiography with electronic injection of CO2 (injection average, 330 ml) and digital subtraction angiography with iodinated contrast mater...
متن کاملCarbon dioxide arteriography as a supplementary study in the detection of acute massive gastrointestinal bleeding
Purpose: To compare the diagnostic efficiency of carbon dioxide (CO2) and an iodinated contrast medium (ICM) for detection of arterial haemorrhage. Methods and materials: Over a 24-month period, 23 patients were referred 26-times for angiography to detect arterial gastrointestinal haemorrhage. The CO2 arteriography was performed only when standard ICM arteriography was undetermined or negative....

متن کاملCarbon dioxide contrast agent for CT arteriography: results in a porcine model.
PURPOSE To test the feasibility of carbon dioxide (CO(2))-enhanced computed tomographic (CT)-arteriography in an animal model. MATERIALS AND METHODS Five domestic swine underwent digital subtraction angiography (DSA), conventional CT angiography with iodinated contrast material, and CO(2)-enhanced CT arteriography. For each CO(2)-enhanced DSA image series, 100 mL of pressurized CO(2) was inje...
متن کاملCarbon Dioxide Angiography: Scientific Principles and Practice
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a colorless, odorless gas which occurs naturally in the atmosphere and human body. With the advent of digital subtraction angiography, the gas has been used as a safe and useful alternative contrast agent in both arteriography and venography. Because of its lack of renal toxicity and allergic potential, CO2 is a preferred contrast agent in patients with renal failure or ...
