  • Title: A clinical and experimental study of meglumine iocarmate in the subarachnoid space: a complication of positive contrast ventriculography.
    Author: Yonekawa Y, Nishikawa M, Egli M, Klaiber R.
    Journal: Surg Neurol; 1976 Mar; 5(3):167-70. PubMed ID: 816023.
    Abstract:
    Meglumine iocarmate (Dimer-X) may be accidentally put into the subarachnoid space because of suboptimal technique during ventriculography. This may cause status epilepticus. Two cases of this complication are reported. It is emphasized that this should be avoided. Treatment is mentioned briefly.
