[Protracted anaphylactic shock after methyl-glucamine iodipamide (author's transl)].
A 73 year old patient with a chronic cholangitis developed protracted anaphylactic shock after intravenous injection of methylglucamine iodipamide. The post-mortem examinations showed no evidence for septicemia. Although endotoxin-shock cannot be completely excluded, the most likely cause of death was an allergic reaction.
