Abstract

Fat embolism syndrome is a rarely seen complication of skeletal trauma, and it is seen at a rate of 2-5% after fractures of the long bonesof the lower extremities. Its classic triad-+consists of hypoxemia, petechial bleedings on the skin and neurological findings. These neurological findings are highly variable and non-specific, and they can presentwith lethargy, irritability, delirium, stupor, convulsion or coma. In thisreport, a male case is presented who was diagnosed with cerebral embolism due to acute cognitive disorder after a segmental tibial fracture.

Özet

Yağ embolizmi sendromu, iskelet travmalarının nadir komplikasyonudur, alt ekstremite uzun kemik kırıkları sonrasında %2-5 oranındagörülür. Klasik triadı; hipoksemi, ciltte peteşial kanamalar ve nörolojik bulgulardır. Nörolojik bulgular oldukça değişken ve nonspesifik olup baş ağrısı, letarji, irritabilite, deliryum, stupor, konvülzyon veya koma ile prezente olabilir. Bu yazıda, parçalı tibiya fraktürü sonrası akut kognitif bozukluk ile serebral embolizm tanısı alan erkek bir olgu sunulmuştur.
