ArticleYear
Salivary gland involvement in systemic lupus erythematosus. A sialographic study.
    Scandinavian journal of rheumatology, 1984, Volume: 13, Issue:1

    Hydrostatic parotid sialography was performed in 46 rheumatological patients, 17 of whom were SLE patients. Signs of atrophy of the parotid gland were noted more often in the SLE group (53%) than in the series as a whole (29%). Strictures in the duct and ductuli were also more common in the SLE group (67%) than in the whole series (50%). Sialectasis was only slightly more common (40%) in the SLE group than in the series as a whole (38%). Two contrast media, Amipaque (metrizamide, 170 mgI/ml) and Urographin 60% (sodium amidotrizoate + meglumin amidotrizoate 10:66, 290 mgI/ml) were used, of which Amipaque proved to be clearly better tolerated. This difference is probably due to the low osmolarity of Amipaque.

Exacerbation of systemic lupus erythematosus, aseptic meningitis and acute mental symptoms, following metrizamide lumbar myelography.
    Neuroradiology, 1984, Volume: 26, Issue:1

    A clinical constellation of exacerbation of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), together with aseptic meningitis, and acute mental symptoms occurred following lumbar myelography with metrizamide. Exacerbation of SLE has not been previously described following myelography with any contrast agent. Meningeal reactions and acute mental symptoms have been reported earlier, but this clinical constellation is new.
