Abstract
|
|
|
Iodinated contrast media (CM) can cause immediate and late reactions. We treated a patient with a recurrent generalized maculopapular rash and a fever that occurred within two days of exposure to iodinated CM, iopromide (Ultravist¨Þ), for chest computed tomography. We performed skin testing including prick tests, intradermal tests, and patch tests. Our findings indicated a late skin reaction to Ultravist¢çin addition to cross-reactions to other iodinated CM such as ioversol (Optiray¨Þ), iohexol (Iobrix¨Þ), and iobitridol (Xenetix¨Þ). In this study, we report the case of a patient diagnosed with a late adverse reaction to Ultravist¢çin addition to cross-reactions to other iodinated CM.
