[The intra-arterial use of lidocaine to reduce pain in aorto-femoral arteriography (author's transl)].
In 50 patients subjected to aorto-femoral arteriography, the examination was carried out with and without the addition of 1 cm3 of 2% lidocaine per 10 cm3 of contrast medium; in 43/50 lidocaine led to a more or less notable reduction in pain without side-effects.
