The complications resulting from 108 lymphographic examinations have been reviewed, with particular reference to unusual pulmonary changes following oil embolization, observed in 5 cases.

The microscopic pathologic changes seen in guinea pig lungs after the intravenous injection of ethiodol have been described to explain the presence of soft, moderately discrete linear-nodular densities observed in human lungs following lymphography. These roentgenographic changes in human lungs appear to be related to: (1) an inflammatory reaction to the contrast material; (2) volume of contrast medium reaching the lung; and (3) individual host response.
