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.

1. A distinction must be made between the fat embolism syndrome, a clinical entity, and fat embolism demonstrated pathologically, which may be found after death following fracture with no prior evidence of the syndrome. 2. One hundred cases of the syndrome encountered over a period of four years have been studied in detail and the diagnostic criteria

The fat embolism syndrome is clinically evident in approximately 0.5-2.0% of patients with long bone fractures. The clinical signs and symptoms are evident in 60% of patients within 24 hours and 85% of patients within 48 hours after trauma. A patient is reported who complained of dyspnea and hemoptysis approximately 72 hours after sustaining a fracture

Surgery Today, 2006
Fat embolism syndrome (FES) was first described in 1862, but its frequency today is still unclear. A diagnosis of FES is often missed because of a subclinical illness or coexisting confusing injuries or disease. Fat embolism syndrome develops most commonly after orthopedic injuries, but it has also been reported after other forms of trauma such as ...

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 ...

Prevention of fat embolism syndrome
Injury, 2006Fat embolism syndrome is a condition of acute respiratory distress following long-bone trauma. This condition may involve not only the lungs but also a number of other body systems. The pathophysiology is not as yet clearly understood, however, intravasation of fat from long-bone fractures may play a role.

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 ...
