- Fat embolism symptoms typically manifests 1 - 3 days after injury
- Fat globules escape the lungs via precapillary arteriovenous shunts, which open under increased pulmonary artery pressure, enabling systemic dissemination (e.g., to the brain → neurologic symptoms)
- Fat emboli in dermal capillaries cause platelet adhesion and activation, leading to thrombocytopenia and the development of a petechial rash
- Anemia may occur due to red blood cell aggregation, destruction, or pulmonary hemorrhage
