Department of Radiology, University of Rochester Medical Center, NY 14642.

Two children are described who developed an apparent cutaneous contact reaction to contrast material in urine. Both children had undergone uneventful voiding cystourethrography with diatrizoate meglumine injection USP 18% followed by intravenous urography with diatrizoate meglumine injection USP 60%. Approximately 1 hour after urography cutaneous bullae and surrounding erythema of the buttocks (one case) or foreskin (one case) were noted. This reaction resembled a superficial chemical burn.
