Acute Renal Failure following Oral Cholecystography

Complications of gastrointestinal radiologic procedures: II. Complications related to biliary tract studies

“…Transient hypotension has been implicated as a contributing factor [12]. The cause of myocardial ischemia following OCG is unclear.…”

“…The cause of myocardial ischemia following OCG is unclear. Hypovolemia induced by dehydration secondary to vomiting and diarrhea could also contribute to a drop in blood pressure [12]. In the presence of hepatobiliary tract disease or when excess dosage is used, a significant fall in blood pressure may be more common [13].…”

“…The etiology of the renal damage caused by cholecystographic media is not clear [12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. Interestingly, most patients have had no underlying renal disease, as opposed to the situation with renal failure following use of the intravenous urographic agents [13,15,16,19].…”

“…Interestingly, most patients have had no underlying renal disease, as opposed to the situation with renal failure following use of the intravenous urographic agents [13,15,16,19]. These include excessive dosage, enhanced gastrointestinal absorption, and decreased hepatic clearance caused by liver derangement [12,13,16,17,21]. These include excessive dosage, enhanced gastrointestinal absorption, and decreased hepatic clearance caused by liver derangement [12,13,16,17,21].…”
