This has happened to me several times - again we thought it was due to some a/v
malformation. Both patients were diabetics.

I had it happen on a diabetic patient - what appeared to be a nice antecubital
vein, good push, no sign of infiltration, but absolutely no fill.
Repeat injection on the opposite arm, perfect transit. The fellows thought
there was some sort of loop in the vein - a new vessel that basically went
nowhere. Really strange.

I have had it happen just once. 25% dye, AC injection initially I think.
Standard push of dye and nothing. No pain, no dye in vessels/eye. Waited
about ten minutes and re-injected and normal show of dye. No explanation.
Patient was heavy set but not significantly obese.

I've had that happened once- as Lori mentioned, it was due to cataract. With RF
filters, I had a view to the retina, but with barrier and exciter filters in,
the view was gone. The lens acted like another filter and completely blocked
any blue or green.
That's the only time I've seen this.

Can't say that I have. Almost sounds like only 'red-free' filter in place, not
FA set. Have had a number of really dark scans, and blocked 2nd cataract
scatter.

Has anyone ever experienced a phenomenon where an FA injection did not
infiltrate, or at least we did not have any indication of infiltration, and no
dye infuses into the retinal blood vessels? All camera functions we're verified
and set correctly and the Color fundus and redfree images we're good.
Just curious.
Thanks
