Two cases of nephrogenic systemic fibrosis after exposure to the macrocyclic compound gadobutrol.

Nephrogenic systemic fibrosis (NSF) is a disease with progressive fibrosis. We describe two cases of NSF after exposure to a macrocyclic gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) gadobutrol, which has been considered as a low-risk agent compared to linear GBCAs. The first case had chronic kidney disease (CKD) Stage 3 and was exposed to 17.
