In 1989, Wong et al. ([1]) described iophendylate-induced basal arachnoiditis. In the same year, Guyer

([2]) Wrote a paper published in the journal Spine, on the long-range prognosis of arachnoiditis.

Guyer noted Pantopaque as one of the causes of the condition, which was incurable and shortened lifespan by an average of 12 years.
