Authors/Creators
- 1. Department of Anesthesiology, University Hospitals Leuven, Belgium.
Description
Onset of neurological symptoms early after intranodal lymphangiography can occur due to Lipiodol droplet migration through intrapulmonary lymphovenous communication. Lipiodol-based lymphangiography is a diagnostic and therapeutic tool by embolizing lymph leakages. Patients with possible intra-cardiac shunts are at risk. Treatment is supportive.
