Fat embolism occurs in the vast majority of patients who have had trauma (approximately 90%). The most common occurrence is after long bone fracture. It has also been noted in cases after orthopedic surgery. Fat embolism is most often diagnosed when the clinical manifestations of fat embolism syndrome become apparent. Reported cases of fat emboli in transit are unusual. In our case, we present the rare finding of fat embolism seen on computed tomography in the lower extremity after a trauma.
绝大多数受过创伤的患者（约90%）会发生脂肪栓塞。最常见于长骨骨折后。在骨科手术后的病例中也有发现。当脂肪栓塞综合征的临床表现明显时，脂肪栓塞最常被诊断出来。关于脂肪栓子在血管中流动的报道病例并不常见。在我们的病例中，我们展示了创伤后在下肢计算机断层扫描中罕见的脂肪栓塞发现。
