A clinical and experimental study of meglumine iocarmate in the subarachnoid space: a complication of positive contrast ventriculography.
Meglumine iocarmate (Dimer-X) may be accidentally put into the subarachnoid space because of suboptimal technique during ventriculography. This may cause status epilepticus. Two cases of this complication are reported. It is emphasized that this should be avoided. Treatment is mentioned briefly.

Intracisternal dimer X: toxicity and prophylaxis.
Although Dimer X is said to be a low toxic water soluble contrast medium, epileptic seizures sometimes occur during or after Dimer X ventriculography. The toxicity of this dye was examined in rats and possible prophylactic measures were evaluated. From the results of our experiment it was concluded that Dimer X of low concentration should be used with premedication of Valium and Decadron.

[Dimer-X in the intracranial subarachnoid space--its toxicity (author's transl)].
The reaction of the rats to injection of Dimer-X into the intracranial subarachnoid space or the cerebrum was examined. When 28% iodine Dimer-X was injected into the subarachnoid space, 7 of 10 rats showed agitation, which is the most severe complication, and all died within one hour. All of the reactions were reduced with the lower concentrations of Dimer-X. The rats which were premedicated with Valium and/or Decadron revealed fewer and less severe complications. It is believed that the intracerebral injection method has many disadvantages, the results of its experiment are therefore reported without further elaboration. From the results of the experiment it is concluded as follows: 1) Dimer-X should not be injected into the intracranial subarachnoid space. 2) Dimer-X of low concentration in the subarachnoid space reduces the complications. 3) Complications from the subarachnoid application of Dimer-X can be reduced by premedication with Valium and Decadron.
