Recurrent Iodinated Contrast Material-Induced Sialadinitis

Abstract

Iodinated contrast material (ICM) can rarely cause sialadinitis. Here we report a case of unilateral parotitis following coronary angioplasty, which subsided with conservative management. He also had a past history of similar illness following previous angiogram. Direct toxic effect of the contrast material or idiosyncratic reaction has been considered as the possible etiology.
