International Ophthalmology, 2010
Ocular fat embolism syndrome in the complete absence of any cardiac defects is a rare phenomenon which is not commonly encountered in ophthalmic practice. We present a case of a 16-year-old girl with fat embolism syndrome and involvement of the retina after a tibial fracture without any cardiac defect.

Survey of Anesthesiology, 1982
Patients with the fat embolism syndrome are reported to have a severe course, with mortality as high as 15 percent. Recent studies have attributed improved prognosis to one or another treatment modality. We reviewed the 54 patients with clinical evidence of the posttraumatic fat embolism syndrome documented at the Foothills Hospital from 1968 to 1977 ...

The "shock lung syndrome," whenever associated with trauma, is probably in part the consequence of fat emboli, though aspiration, disseminated intravascular coagulation, microatelectasis, pulmonary edema, and hemorrhage due to other lung insults may be important in the etiology of many cases.

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 1987
The clinical fat embolism syndrome consisting of progressive pulmonary insufficiency, cerebral disfunction, and petechiae is rare. Following severe skeletal trauma, fat droplets appear in the circulating blood and embolize the capillaries of the lungs and other organs.

Hypoxemia following long bone or pelvic fracture (LBPF) is often attributed to fat embolism syndrome (FES), but the true incidence and etiology of postfracture pulmonary shunt (Qsp) are not well defined. Over 12 months, 92 patients with LBPF admitted to a Level I trauma center were prospectively evaluated.

Injury, 1997
The classical fat embolism syndrome comprises the symptoms of petechial rash, pulmonary distress and mental disturbances with an onset 24-48 h following a pelvic or long-bone fracture. Although the first description of the fat embolization process is ascribed to Zenker’ in an article published in 1862, he only mentioned the presence of fat in the lung ...

Fat emboli are a life-threatening source of respiratory insufficiency. Whether they are of mechanical or chemical origin remains a subject of controversy. Fat embolism syndrome is most often seen after fracture of long bones, and immobilization of the fracture site may decrease risk of its development.
