[A state of delirium (confusion) following cerebral angiography with ioxilan: a case report].
The case of a 21-year-old man in a state of delirium (confusion) following cerebral angiography with 50 ml of ioxilan is reported. The patient was admitted to our hospital with facial hemangioma. After the examination, he complained of nausea and headache, and then became confused. No lesion was demonstrated on CT or MRI. About 3 days later, he recovered completely without any neurologic deficit. This patient had undergone cerebral angiography with ioxilan one year previously.
