  • Title: Use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) during whole lung lavage in pulmonary alveolar proteinosis associated with lung cancer.
    Author: Kim KH, Kim JH, Kim YW.
    Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2004 Nov; 26(5):1050-1. PubMed ID: 15519209.
    Abstract:
    We describe a case of pulmonary alveolar proteinosis in a male adult with lung cancer. To achieve the successful operation of lung cancer, we used percutaneous veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) during whole lung lavage (WLL) of the contralateral lung. We performed successful WLL under ECMO support.
