Main Article Content
Abstract
Conclusion: Fat embolism syndrome resulting from short bone fractures is a rare condition; therefore, it is necessary to have a high level of diagnostic suspicion, not only in the most common scenarios, but also in these unusual and challenging contexts, which allows for its early detection and, as a result, timely management, which has a positive impact on clinical outcomes and reduces the risk of long-term sequelae.
