title: Severe liver injury with hematological disorders following the injection of non-ionic contrast medium. A case report.
abstract: We describe a dramatic case of severe liver injury and hematological disorders following the injection of non-ionic contrast medium in a 49-year-old woman with endometrial cancer. This case developed into a fulminant hepatitis-like picture that required repeated plasmapheresis and hemodialysis.
