El embolismo suele afectar otros órganos abdominales (páncreas, tubo digestivo). Los signos de embolismo periférico masivo (livedo reticular, nódulos musculares dolorosos, gangrena franca) sugieren este diagnóstico, aunque no suelen aparecer. La embolización retiniana puede producir una ceguera súbita y en la exploración del fondo de ojo se pueden observar placas anaranjadas en las arteriolas retinianas.

Hope this helps:-))
