Perioperative, protective use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in complex thoracic surgery.
Yan ZhangMing LuoBo WangZhen QinRong-Hua ZhouPublished in: Perfusion (2021)
Our experience indicates that ECMO is a feasible method for complex trachea-bronchial surgery, huge thoracic mass excision and lung transplantation, and the ECMO-related risks may be justified. With further accumulation of experience with ECMO, a more sophisticated protocol for management of critical airway or heart failure problems in thoracic surgeries can be derived.
