“…Gallbladder opacification, one variety of ectopic excretion of contrast media through the liver, has been reported in experimental animal or in patients with urological troubles with or without normal blood urea levels [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. With the advent of high-sensitivity CT examination, gallbladder opacification as well as hepatic excretion of contrast media and concentration in the gallbladder, has been frequently recognized.…”

The objective of our study was to determine the correlation between gallbladder opacification by delayed CT and contrast-associated nephropathy (CAN). Delayed CT after angiography was performed in 269 patients. Gallbladder opacification was defined when the CT value in gallbladder was more than 30 HU. Positive renal dysfunction was recognized as CAN which defined as an increase in serum creatinine level > 0.3 mg/dl and > 20 % on days 1, 3, or 7. Gallbladder opacification appeared in 154 of 269 (57 %) patients and CAN in 35 (13 %) patients. Of 117 patients without gallbladder opacification, 17 CAN (14 %) were recognized, and of 152 patients with gallbladder opacification, 18 CAN (12 %) were recognized. No significant correlation existed between delayed gallbladder opacification and CAN.

“…

IntroductionGallbladder opacifications after administering contrast media were reported sometimes in patients with urological troubles until the mid-1980 s [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. However, new contrast media, such as ioxaglate and iohexol, showed high incidence of gallbladder opacification without evidence of renal dysfunction [8][9][10].

“…This phenomenon has been noted less frequently in infants and children [2] and is rarely seen in the absence of severe renal impairment [3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. It is generally accepted that these agents are excreted by the kidney entirely by glomerular filtration with little, if any, tubular reabsorption [10].…”

Gallbladder opacification in infants following high dose angiocardiography

et al. 1988

Seven infants in congestive heart failure underwent high dose angiocardiography for diagnosis of severe congenital heart disease and subsequently displayed delayed opacification of the gallbladder. Biliary excretion of sufficient volume to opacify the gallbladder occurred despite structurally normal kidneys and no evidence of renal failure. Decreased renal clearance of contrast due to generalized diminution of glomerular filtration is postulated. The high doses of contrast and slow renal clearance allowed a relatively increased rate of hepatobiliary excretion and subsequent observation of the opacified gallbladder on abdominal radiographs. This phenomenon may not be as uncommon as is generally thought but its timing and location often do not allow an opportunity to make this observation.
