Abstract

Our objective was to report three delayed, generalized, and protracted cutaneous reactions in two patients that are compatible with acute generalized exanthematous pustulosis (AGEP) after contrast medium administration. Radiologists and referring clinicians need to be aware of late adverse reactions to the administration of contrast media and to distinguish these from other possible causes.
