Iodide mumps after contrast enhanced CT with iopamidol: a case report.

We have experienced a case of iodide mumps after CT examination with 100 ml of iopamidol. The patient was a 70-year-old woman with a history of right nephrectomy due to right renal cancer. She underwent CT examination to explore local recurrence and abdominal metastases including lymph node and liver metastases. Three hours after the CT examination, she complained of nausea, vomiting, facial flushing, bilateral jaw pain, and fever. The laboratory findings 12 hours after CT examination showed increased white blood cells and elevated serum amylase enzyme. Analysis of the amylase fraction showed that 86% originated from the salivary glands. She was admitted to the hospital, and the symptoms continued for four days, with decreasing severity. Anti-inflammatory therapy was performed, and the patient was discharged six days after the event.
