مستخلص: Abstract: Lipid emulsion therapy (LET) is the intravenous administration of lipid solution for parenteral alimentation, especially in preterm infants and adults with debilitating illnesses. It has also been used in attempts of detoxification in suspected cases of drug overdose. Whether this interferes with circulation and/or perfusion is debatable, and it is suggested that it may interfere with coagulation process. The emulsifying agent has been identified microscopically mainly in the lungs of these patients, with rare reports in adults and even more rare ones in the brain; however, although it is rarely reported in other organs, to our knowledge, no reports of gross autopsy findings in the brain are available in the English literature, nor are there reports of pathologic findings after lipid emulsion therapy administration for drug toxicity. Although it is also debated in the literature whether this material forms as an artifact or represents the actual agent, here we report the gross and microscopic autopsy findings in the brain of a patient who received LET for suspected beta-blocker intoxication. It will be beneficial for pathologists who perform autopsies in the forensic or medical settings to be aware of these findings, along with the uses and potential complications of LET.
