We describe the occurrence of monolateral aseptic sialadenitis following non-iodinated contrast medium (ICM) administration for a carotid artery stenting procedure in a 71-year-old man. The mechanism for iodide-induced sialadenitis may be idiosyncratic or related to toxic accumulation of iodide. The risk for sialadenitis is directly related to serum iodide levels (> 10 mg/100 mL) and inversely related to normal renal function so that in renal impairment, ICM can be eliminated through alternative pathways such as the salivary glands and other excretory organs.

Abstract
We describe the occurrence of monolateral aseptic sialadenitis following non-iodinated contrast medium (ICM) administration for a carotid artery stenting procedure in a 71-year-old man. The mechanism for iodide-induced sialadenitis may be idiosyncratic or related to toxic accumulation of iodide. The risk for sialadenitis is directly related to serum iodide levels (> 10 mg/100 mL) and inversely related to normal renal function so that in renal impairment, ICM can be eliminated through alternative pathways such as the salivary glands and other excretory organs.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
