When lung injury is due to fat emboli, there is an interval between the time of trauma and the onset of clinical symptoms and chest radiographic findings. The radiographic picture is that of a diffuse alveolar and interstitial lung density. In severe cases marked respiratory embarrassment requires the use of both oxygen therapy and mechanical respirators for survival.Article HistoryPublished in print: Mar 1975 FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited ByRadiologic mimics of pulmonary embolismYuriMatusov, Victor FTapson2021 | Postgraduate Medicine, Vol. 133, No. sup1Emergency Chest RadiologyTae JungKim, Kyung HeeLee, Yeon HyeonChoe, Kyung SooLee2021Beyond Pulmonary Embolism; Nonthrombotic Pulmonary Embolism as Diagnostic ChallengesBridgette E.McCabe, Clinton A.Veselis, IgorGoykhman, JohnHochhold, DanielEisenberg, HongjuSon2019 | Current Problems in Diagnostic Radiology, Vol. 48, No. 4Medical RadiologyG.Dalpiaz, M.Piolanti2016A fatal case of systemic fat embolism resulting from gluteal injections of vitamin e for cosmetic enhancementR.C.Mendoza-Morales, E.V.Camberos-Nava, A.Luna-Rosas, L.Garcés-Ramírez, F.De la Cruz, F.García-Dolores2016 | Forensic Science International, Vol. 259Fat Embolism SyndromeMarcoPiolanti, GiorgiaDalpiaz, MarianoScaglione, CarloConiglio, MarcoMiceli, SaraViolini, RoccoTrisolini, LiberoBarozzi2016 | Journal of Computer Assisted Tomography, Vol. 40, No. 3Surgical Intensive Care MedicineJohn M.O’Donnell2016Brain Fat EmbolismN.Decaminada, M.Thaler, R.Holler, A.Salsa, C.Ladiges, G.Rammlmair2012 | The Neuroradiology Journal, Vol. 25, No. 2Surgical Intensive Care MedicineJohn M.O’Donnell2010Imaging of Diseases of the ChestDavid MHansell, David ALynch, H PageMcAdams, Alexander ABankier2010Skeletal TraumaCraig S.Roberts, Gregory E.Gleis, DavidSeligson2009The Chest X-Ray: A Survival GuideGeraldde Lacey, SimonMorley, LaurenceBerman2008Imaging of the ChestNestor L.Müller, C.
