  • Title: Iopamidol myelography-induced seizures.
    Author: Singh S, Rajpal C, Nannapeneni S, Venkatesh S.
    Journal: MedGenMed; 2005 Apr 11; 7(2):11. PubMed ID: 16369390.
    Abstract:
    Iopamidol, a water-soluble contrast agent, has been rarely associated with seizures. We describe a case of generalized tonic-clonic seizure after cervical myelography with iopamidol in a previously healthy young man. In patients presenting with seizures, a history of recent myelography should be considered as an etiology. Iopamidol myelography may be associated with a risk of seizures. Clinicians need to be aware of this complication and inform their patients about such risk.
