Abstract
Prosthetic revision of hip fractures may result in embolization of tissue products leading to death. In this report, from cases reported to the Anaesthesia Advisory Committee to the Chief Coroner of Ontario, emphasis is placed on the immediate resuscitative procedures which may offset a fatal outcome.Keywords
