A case of ARF after chromopertubation with povidone iodine

Abstract: Povidone iodine is a widely-used antiseptic agent, especially for cutaneous lesions. Despite its apparent innocuousness, some cases of acute renal failure are reportedly due to iodine toxicity. Authors report a case of an acute renal failure secondary to povidone iodine exposure in a 22-year-old woman. She underwent a hysteroscopy for diagnosis of secondary sterility with bilateral tubal block in hysterosalpingogram, and povidone iodine was used as the contrast agent. She developed acute renal failure with oli… Show more

“…Toxicity of another solution, cetyl pyridinium chloride, is noticed with vomiting, diarrhea, and abdominal pain. Ingestion of this solution in concentrated form may produce burns of the mouth, pharynx, and esophagus [51]. Additionally, hemorrhagic GI tract necrosis and peritonitis have also been reported [51].…”

“…Ingestion of this solution in concentrated form may produce burns of the mouth, pharynx, and esophagus [51]. Additionally, hemorrhagic GI tract necrosis and peritonitis have also been reported [51]. Prolonged exposure of common constituents of oral rinses like essential oils, menthol, thymol can act as potential allergens in various ethnical races [52].…”

“…However, such studies were conducted in the 1980s; hence, further investigations with modern detection techniques are needed in long term follow-up. Research on povidone-iodine, reveals that it can cause acute renal failure, mainly when absorbed through mucosal surfaces [50,51]. Even diluted solutions of povidone-iodine (0.1 to 20%) are toxic to human fibroblasts, granulocytes, and monocytes [52].…”
