Obstructive hydrocephalus following Pantopaque myelography.

F Jensen, E Reske-Nielsen, E Ratjen

    Neuroradiology
    |September 26, 1979
    PubMed
    Summary

    Delayed obstructive hydrocephalus, likely from Pantopaque myelography, was observed. Autopsy revealed granulation tissue occluding foramina, characteristic of a Pantopaque reaction.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Pantopaque myelography, a diagnostic imaging technique, has been associated with potential complications.
    • Obstructive hydrocephalus is a condition characterized by the buildup of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain.

    Observation:

    • A case of delayed obstructive hydrocephalus is presented, suspected to be caused by Pantopaque myelography.
    • Autopsy findings revealed occlusion of the foramina of Magendie and Luschka by granulation tissue.

    Findings:

    • The granulation tissue contained multinucleated giant cells with calcareous deposits and unstained vacuoles, often surrounding empty spaces.
    • Significant infiltration of lymphocytes and plasma cells was noted within the granulation tissue.
    • These histological findings are consistent with a typical Pantopaque reaction, supported by comparison with similar cases and animal studies.

    Implications:

    • This case highlights a rare but serious delayed complication of Pantopaque myelography.
    • Understanding the tissue reaction is crucial for diagnosing and managing post-myelography complications.
    • The findings emphasize the importance of considering Pantopaque-induced inflammation in cases of unexplained hydrocephalus after myelography.
