Unexplained high lactate levels after long bone fractures: Consider cerebral fat embolism syndrome
 ,
 ,
Abstract
Cerebral fat embolism is an uncommon but serious complication of long-bone fracture. Nonetheless, recognition of this uncommon complication remains difficult. Here we present two cases of cerebral fat embolism syndrome (CFES) and describe a possible association between CFES and high lactate levels. © 2015, Netherlands Society of Intensive Care.
