Abstract
A 38-year-old man had severe loin pain and computed tomography perform ed 48 hours later, after drip infusion pyelography (DIP), revealed wed ge-shaped contrast enhancement. He showed mild impairment of renal fun ction with no evidence of rhabdomyolysis. The loin pain lasted for 5 d ays and the wedge-shaped contrast enhancement on CT persisted for 14 d ays and improved. The case was compatible with the new syndrome, loin pain and persistent wedge-shaped contrast enhancement on CT, proposed by Ishikawa et al (Nephron 27: 31, 1981).
