Incidence of Pulmonary Fat Embolism at Autopsy: An Undiagnosed Epidemic

Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection & Critical Care, 2011
To determine the incidence, time course, and severity of pulmonary fat embolism (PFE) and cerebral fat embolism (CFE) in trauma and nontrauma patients at the time of autopsy.Prospectively, consecutive patients presenting for autopsy were evaluated for evidence pulmonary and brain fat embolism.

Computed Tomography Diagnosis of Macroscopic Pulmonary Fat Embolism

Journal of Thoracic Imaging, 2002
Pulmonary fat embolism probably occurs commonly after major orthopedic injuries and after orthopedic surgery. Furthermore, tiny fat emboli can often be shown by transesophageal echocardiography during orthopedic surgery. However, large macroscopic are rarely identified radiologically.

Pulmonary fat embolization as a diagnostic finding for heat exposure

Legal Medicine, 2009
The aim of this study was to examine whether the detection of pulmonary fat embolization is valid as a significant indicator of heat exposure in forensic autopsies. In 54 cases where there was no evidence of fracture, burn or pancreatitis, 25 cases (46.3%) showed pulmonary fat embolization, the degree of which was pathohistologically classified as ...

In vivo study to assess fat embolism resulting from the Reamer-Irrigator-Aspirator 2 system compared to a novel aspirator-based concept for intramedullary bone graft harvesting

Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery
Introduction Fat embolism (FE) following intramedullary (IM) reaming can cause severe pulmonary complications and sudden death. Recently, a new harvesting concept was introduced in which a novel aspirator is used first for bone marrow (BM) aspiration and
