Massive fat and necrotic bone marrow embolization in a previously undiagnosed patient with sickle cell disease.
A case of sickle cell disease diagnosed postmortem is described. A 37-year-old black woman presented with anemia, respiratory distress, and abdominal and back pain. Death followed an intramuscular injection of iron, and anaphylaxis was clinically diagnosed. At autopsy, massive fat and necrotic bone marrow embolization of pulmonary and renal vessels was found. In the vertebral column, multifocal areas of ischemic necrosis were present, and proved to be the source of this embolization. Sickled red cells appeared in bone marrow sinusoids, and signs of disseminated intravascular coagulation were present.
