Iodide Mumps After Intravascular Administration of a Nonionic Contrast Medium

Case report and review of the literature

Pages 82-84 | Accepted 24 Jan 1994, Published online: 04 Jan 2010
 

Abstract

Swelling of the submandibular, sublingual and/or parotid glands (“iodide mumps”) is an uncommon complication to intravascular administration of contrast material. The etiology remains unclear, but the reaction seems to be idiosyncratic or related to toxic accumulation of iodide in the ductal systems of the salivary glands. The introduction of nonionic contrast media has not eliminated the risk of developing iodide mumps. The first reported case of iodide mumps after intravascular administration of iopromide (Ultravist 300) is presented.
