Rare delayed hypersensitivity reactions to contrast media: Severe cutaneous adverse reactions.

The risk of developing a severe delayed cutaneous reaction (SCAR) is very low following iodine-based contrast medium (ICM) administration and extremely low following gadolinium-based contrast agent (GBCA) administration. However, SCAR can be very severe and potentially life-threatening. It is crucial for the imaging physician to recognize danger signals: bullous skin eruption, skin erosion and detachment, mucosal involvement, systemic symptoms, and laboratory abnormalities.

The 73-year-old non-Hispanic, African-American man with a history of renal cell carcinoma (RCC), status post-nephrectomy receiving Lenvatinib, and metastatic disease, for which he also had received nivolumab for 13½ months. An itchy eruption appeared one month after the discontinuation of nivolumab and after the beginning of axitinib therapy. Physical examination revealed pink-violaceous scaly plaques, some with trailing scales on the anterior aspect of the trunk (Figure 1), a slight erosion on the hard palate, and hypopigmentation on the hands and legs.

This case report discusses two clinical encounters of a 62-year-old Hispanic woman initially hospitalized with suspected Stevens-Johnson syndrome, later correctly diagnosed with bullous fixed drug eruption during an outpatient visit for a similar eruption. The first encounter involved an extensive evaluation and an 11-day hospital stay, while the second was managed successfully as an outpatient with oral prednisone. This report highlights the importance of differentiating bullous fixed drug eruption from Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis and emphasizes the need for a collaborative approach between Primary Care Providers and Dermatology to ensure optimal patient care.

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is the most prevalent autoimmune subepidermal blistering disease of the skin and mucous membranes. This disease typically affects the elderly and manifests with pruritus and localized or, most commonly, generalized bullous lesions. Numerous studies have established the association between BP and oral antidiabetic agents, particularly dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors, diuretics, and certain antibiotics, notably levofloxacin and cephalexin.

Toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) is a severe skin reaction caused by extensive epidermal and mucosal necrosis. This clinical phenomenon is known as an acute syndrome of apoptotic pan-epidermolysis (ASAP). The ASAP phenomenon is observed in conditions that mimic TEN, highlighting the challenge in distinguishing these conditions.
