dc.description.abstract | Cerebral fat embolism syndrome is an under‐recognized yet well‐known complication of bone marrow necrosis occurring in patients with sickle cell disease. We highlight a case manifested by multisystem organ failure in an elderly patient who attained neurologic recovery with prompt initiation of hematology consultation, RBC exchange, and supportive measures. | en_US |
