I'm not talking about people who have been in accidents and where the same technology has been used, as that's quite a different situation to the sort of controlled osteotomies used for cosmetic LL; but has there actually been any actual amputations?

I know it's theoretically possible with infection, but I can't find a case of someone it has happened to.

Is that fat embolism deaths or from pulmonary? Because I don’t think I’ve heard of any fat embolism deaths besides close calls.
