Abstract: | Indigo carmine (sodium indigotindisulfonate), a blue dye, has been widely used by surgeons to identify and to examine the urinary tract and is considered biologically inert and extremely safe. We present a case of severe life-threatening anaphylactoid reaction followed by cardiac arrest associated with intravenous indigo carmine injection. |
