Overview
Laboratory tests are not done commonly to diagnose fat embolism. However, the most commonly seen findings are anemia, thrombocytopenia and lipidura.
Laboratory Findings
Common Laboratory Findings:
The most commonly seen laboratory findings in fat embolism include:
In some cases, fat embolism syndrome is associated with elevations in the following laboratory values:[1][2]
- Plasma PLA2 (phospholipase A2)
- Nitrate/nitrite
- Methylguanidine
- TNF-α (tumour necrosis factor-α)
- IL-1β (interleukin-1β)
- IL-10 (interleukin-10)
- IL-6 (interleukin-6)[3]
