[Pulmonary ultrastructural changes following experimental fat embolism in the rabbit (author's transl)]. 1977

G Chomette, and M Auriol

The intravenous injection of triolein in the rabbit, besides general consequences in some viscera (functional ischemic necrosis of the right ventricle, systemic cerebral and kidney embolisms), induces in the lung non specific reactions similar to those observed after other pulmonary agressions. Yet, some peculiarities are observed only in this experimental model: severe and persistent septal oedema due to early endothelial changes; intensive inflammatory response with numerous macrophages. On the other hand, except in zones with epithelio-conjonctive repair process of necrotic foci, the epithelial reaction reduced to a temporary predominance of type 2-pneumonocytes, remains of low intensity.

D007249	Inflammation	A pathological process characterized by injury or destruction of tissues caused by a variety of cytologic and chemical reactions. It is usually manifested by typical signs of pain, heat, redness, swelling, and loss of function.

D011817	Rabbits	A burrowing plant-eating mammal with hind limbs that are longer than its fore limbs. It belongs to the family Leporidae of the order Lagomorpha, and in contrast to hares, possesses 22 instead of 24 pairs of chromosomes.
