Myocardial injury or infarction associated with fat embolism in sickle cell disease: a report of three cases with survival.

Nghia C Dang1, Cage Johnson, Mahmoud Eslami-Farsani, L Julian Haywood.   

Abstract

Fat embolism represents a dread complication of sickle cell hemoglobinopathies. We present the details of three cases that, in addition to an acute chest syndrome, had serological and clinical parameters consistent with myocardial damage. A favorable outcome was obtained with judicious use of blood transfusion. (c) 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc.
