ABSTRACT

Orthopedic surgical procedures are associated with a variety of complications due to em- bolic phenomena. Fat embolism syndrome is associated with multiple trauma injuries and surgery involving longbone fractures. The pathogenesis of syndrome is not clear and treatment remains supportive. We experienced a case of pulmonary embolism associated with total hip replacement. We suspected embolism on pulmonary perfusion scan and diagnosed fat embolism with criteria for diagnosis of fat embolism syndrome by Gurd.
