Duplication of the trachea is an extremely rare condition that has been infrequently reported in the medical literature. We report an adult case with complete tracheal duplication associated with unilateral atelectasis, which was incidentally detected by computed tomography. Tracheal duplication should be considered as a possible cause of severe atelectasis in adults.

Hemorrhage is a finding of clinical fat embolism syndrome. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the occurrence of hemorrhage in the cat brain by SW MR imaging after infusion of triolein as a bolus or as an emulsion into the carotid artery. ⋯ SW images revealed hemorrhage in lesion hemispheres infused with triolein bolus. However, there was no evidence of hemorrhage infused with emulsified triolein. Thus, the occurrence of hemorrhage in cerebral fat embolism may depend on fat status.
