Pulmonary embolism (PE) is a common illness that can cause death and disability. It is difficult to detect because patients present with a wide array of symptoms and signs. The clinical setting can raise suspicion, and certain inherited and acquired risk factors predispose susceptible individuals.

Pulmonary Embolism and Amniotic Fluid Embolism
Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2022Venous thromboembolism (VTE) as well as other embolic events including amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) remain a leading cause of maternal death in the United States and worldwide. The pregnant patient is at a higher risk of developing VTE including pulmonary embolism. In contrast, AFE is a rare, but catastrophic event that remains incompletely understood.

Fat Embolism and Fat Embolism Syndrome
Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, 2019Fat embolism (FE) occurs frequently after trauma and during orthopaedic procedures involving manipulation of intramedullary contents. Classically characterized as a triad of pulmonary distress, neurologic symptoms, and petechial rash, the clinical entity of FE syndrome is much less common.

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 ...

Embolization in atherosclerosis
Neuroimaging Clinics of North America, 2002Much has been learned about microembolization in the last two decades. The promising blood markers for brain injury will further enhance our future understanding of microembolic events. New surgical techniques, drugs, and devices have substantially reduced microembolization during carotid angioplasty, CEA, and CABG.

Pulmonary embolism is usually a consequence of deep vein thrombosis, and together the two conditions are known as venous thromboembolism. Non-thromboembolic causes of pulmonary embolism are rare. Pulmonary thromboembolism is a potentially life-threatening disease, if left untreated.

While transcatheter embolization of the spleen has shown promise in the treatment of a wide spectrum of disorders, the incidence of serious complications with this technique has limited its use as an alternative to operative splenectomy. In our institution 41 patients were treated with a modified technique involving partial splenic embolization ...

Abstract Cholesterol embolism occurring after vascular surgery or intra-arterial angiographic procedures is not uncommon, but is often unrecognized. The clinical features mimic several conditions, including contrast nephropathy and systemic vasculitis, and—if misdiagnosed—can result in the inappropriate use of powerful immunosuppressive ...

Annals of Emergency Medicine, 1988
Pulmonary embolism remains a challenging problem in diagnosis and management for the emergency physician. Although its clinical presentation is protean and often ambiguous, risk stratification can be accomplished based on the predictive power of a limited number of physical and historical characteristics.
