[Changes of cutaneous blood flow after aortofemoral angiography (author's transl)].
Temperature versus time curves were registered during aortofemoral angiography in 48 patients. The cutaneous temperature was initially reduced in 46 of the patients. This phenomenon was interpreted as a temporary decrease of blood flow and can not be explained by hypertonicity of contrast media, but indicates additional pharmacodynamic effects. Reactive hyperemia depends on pathologic alterations of large and small vessels.
