Cerebral angiography was carried out in two diabetic patients in the evaluation of minor vascular ischemic episodes. A transient acute renal failure following cerebral angiography was accompanied by a transient comatose episode with severe unilateral neurological deficits. A functional depression of the injected hemisphere due to a contrast induced impairment of the blood-brain barrier is suggested as the pathophysiological background of the neurological complication.
