Gynaecological Laparoscopy Surgery Complicated Into CO2 Embolism, Cardiac Arrest and Severe ARDS Requiring ECMO Therapy.
Puntos clave
To discuss complications arising from gynaecological laparoscopy surgery and the role of ECMO therapy.
Case report of a gynaecological laparoscopy surgery
Patient presented with CO2 embolism, cardiac arrest, and severe ARDS
Treatment included extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy.
Cardiac arrest and severe ARDS developed post-surgery
Patient required ECMO therapy due to refractory hypoxia
Favorable outcome was achieved after ECMO intervention.
Resumen
E complicated by severe ARDS with refractory hypoxia requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy, which resulted in a favourable outcome.
