PARRILLA, Gustavo A et al. Resection of a pulmonary nodule in a transplanted lung under extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. Rev. argent. cir. [online]. 2019, vol.111, n.3, pp.184-190. ISSN 2250-639X.

The use of perioperative support with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) systems is a novel concept in general thoracic surgery We report the case of a male patient with a history of right lung transplant due to idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) who required resection of a right pulmonary nodule under veno-venous (VV) ECMO support. The use of VV-ECMO is a feasible option in selected cases when complications are expected to occur with one lung ventilation.
