Fat embolism syndrome is usually associated with surgery for large bone fractures. Symptoms usually occur within 36 hours of hospitalization after traumatic injury. We present a case with fat embolism syndrome due to femur fracture. Prompt supportive treatment of the patient's respiratory system and additional pharmaceutical treatment provided the positive clinical outcome. There is no specific...

The authors report an unusual case of a fat embolism following an isolated lumbar vertebra wedge fracture. A 66-year-old gentleman sustained a lumbar wedge fracture following a fall. During routine mobilisation some days later he collapsed suddenly and became unresponsive. Shortly after, he suffered a fatal cardiac arrest. A post-mortem was performed which attributed the cause of death to fat e...

background: respiratory problems are common after long bone fractures. the objective of the present investigation is to evaluate the effect of early fixation of femoral shaft fracture on the incidence of respiratory problems.   methods: the results of early and late stabilization of femoral shaft fractures were studied in 150 patients. the patients were divided into two groups according to the ...

Several experimental models have been used to produce intravascular fat embolism. We have developed a simple technique to induce fat embolism using corn oil emulsified with distilled water to form fatty micelles. Fat embolism was produced by intravenous administration of these fatty micelles in anaesthetised rats, causing alveolar oedema, haemorrhage and increased lung weight. Histopathological...

The importance of fat embolism as a complication of bony trauma has been recognized for over 100 years. During this time there have been short bursts of rapid progress in knowledge and understanding of the problem separated by periods of confusion and misunderstandings. Presently, as a result of improvements in technology, new information has been derived to reduce significantly the morbidity a...

Fat embolism syndrome is a collection of respiratory, haematological, neurological and cutaneous symptoms and signs associated with trauma and other disparate surgical and medical conditions. The incidence of the clinical syndrome is low (< 1% in retrospective reviews) whilst the embolisation of marrow fat appears to be an almost inevitable consequence of long bone fractures. There is debate ov...

As one might suppose, the patho-physiological aspects of this question are quite diversified and complex. Hoffheinz's approach to this phase of the subject has done much to integrate the symptomcomplex of fat embolism. One might well turn to physico-dynamics in an endeavor to explain the cause of impaction of fat particles. In his monograph Beneke states that the cohesive force of fat particles...
