Gadolinium Retention and Toxicity—An Update
2017, Advances in Chronic Kidney DiseaseCitation Excerpt :These 4 patients showed the glove-and-sock pattern of pain, which is universally observed in NSF and central torso pain in 3 patients. Skin thickening and doughtiness of the hands was seen in the 2 subjects with late-stage disease (7 and 8 years), which is also described as a feature that progressively develops with NSF.73,80 Headache and clouded mentation were described in 2 subjects.
Gadolinium deposition disease: Initial description of a disease that has been around for a while
2016, Magnetic Resonance ImagingCitation Excerpt :Based on these results, we propose a name for this presumed disease process in subjects with normal renal function and gadolinium toxicity, Gadolinium Deposition Disease (GDD). At least 60% of our subjects showed a glove-and-sock distribution of disease associated with intense sharp “pins and needles” or burning pain, and skin changes, resembling NSF [11–13]. Other examples of similar but less severe changes compared to NSF include: tissue in NSF is often described as woody and joint contractions severe, whereas subjects in our survey have reported as spongy or rubbery, and joint flexures minimal.

2012, RadiographyCitation Excerpt :The condition was first recognised in several patients in 1997 and was first described in the literature in 2000.20 NSF is characterized by the formation of connective tissue in which the skin becomes thickened, coarse and hard, sometimes leading to contractures and joint immobility.20 Patients may also develop systemic involvement of other organs including the lungs, liver, muscle and the heart and therefore NSF may become a fatal condition.21
