  • Title: Transient acute renal failure and functional hemispheric depression after cerebral arteriography in diabetic patients.
    Author: Skyhøj Olsen T, Lund P, Praestholm J.
    Journal: Acta Neurol Scand; 1981 Dec; 64(6):460-4. PubMed ID: 7348000.
    Abstract:
    Cerebral angiography was carried out in two diabetic patients in the evaluation of minor vascular ischemic episodes. A transient acute renal failure following cerebral angiography was accompanied by a transient comatose episode with severe unilateral neurological deficits. A functional depression of the injected hemisphere due to a contrast induced impairment of the blood-brain barrier is suggested as the pathophysiological background of the neurological complication.
