  • Title: Demonstration of traumatic hepato-pleural-cutaneous defect by 131I-rose bengal.
    Author: Henderson RW, Lee YC, Telfer N.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1978 Nov; 3(11):432-3. PubMed ID: 729326.
    Abstract:
    A 19-year-old man was shot in the right chest about 2 cm below the nipple; bloody fluid was drained through a chest tube. Two days later sero-sanguineous fluid tinged with bile was seen to drain from the wound site. 131I-rose bengal, injected intravenously, collected in the dome of the liver and drained into a collection bag placed over the wound site, thus identifying a hepato-pleural-cutaneous fistula, which was confirmed at surgery.
