[Anaphylactoid complications of iodide contrast media in arteriography of the lower extremities during general anesthesia].
The authors studied the manifestations of intolerance to certain iodide contrast products injected by the arterial route, under general anaesthesia. The study covers 385 arteriographies of the lower limbs which were divided into two groups, depending on whether a cortisone premedication had been administrated or not. In the premedicated group, no incidents were noted. In the other group, 13 p. 100 of subjects had cutaneous manifestations with Radioselectan. General anaesthesia did not avoid the accidents which depend on the nature and the quantity of the product injected. Corticosteroids prevent these reactions.
