Table_1_Cerebral Large Vessel Occlusion Caused by Fat Embolism—A Case Series and Review of the Literature.docx

The diagnosis of fat embolism syndrome typically involves neurological, respiratory and dermatological manifestations of microvascular occlusion 24–72 h after a precipitating event. However, fat embolism causing cerebral large vessel occlusion strokes and their sequelae have rarely been reported in the literature. This case series reports three patients with fat emboli post operatively causing cerebral large vessel occlusions, as well as a review of the literature to identify differences in clinical presentations and outcomes in stroke secondary to fat emboli causing large vessel occlusions compared to those with fat embolism syndrome.

脂肪栓塞综合征的诊断通常涉及神经、呼吸和皮肤科在激发事件后24至72小时出现的微血管闭塞症状。然而，导致大脑大血管闭塞的脂肪栓塞及其并发症在文献中报道较少。本病例系列报告了三例术后出现脂肪栓子导致大脑大血管闭塞的患者，并对文献进行了回顾，以识别由于脂肪栓塞引起的大血管闭塞所致的中风与脂肪栓塞综合征在临床表现和预后方面的差异。
