[Pantopaque-cisternography- clinical examinations of possible late complications with special regards to neurological findings (author's transl)].

Extensive examinations after couple of months or years after pantopaque-cisternography were performed in 20 patients, in whom no central nervous system diseases were known and in whom no surgery of CNS was previously performed. With only one exception the contrast medium was found intracranially with preference to the sella and to the region of the frontobasis. No connection was found between the amount of pantopaque and the length of time since the performance of cisternography. No late neurological complications were observed.
