We report a case of probable contrast-induced neurotoxicity that followed a technically challenging cardiac catheterization in a 69-year-old woman. The procedure had involved the administration of a large cumulative dose of an iodinated, nonionic contrast medium into the innominate artery: twelve hours following the catheterization, the patient developed a seizure followed by a left hemiplegia,...

The acute tissue injury resulting from extravasation of iodinated contrast media is possibly related primarily to the hyperosmolality of the extravasated fluid. Despite this, the vast majority of patients in ...
متن کاملA Case of Skin Necrosis after Extravasation of Intravenous Immunoglobulin
Extravasation of certain drugs can make an injury on the injection site. It occurs more often in the fragile skin of children and old people.

He had bilateral non-purulent conjunctival injection, ery...
متن کاملThe Incidence of Contrast-Induced Nephropathy in Saudi Population after Cardiac Catheterization
