Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) in fulminant blastomycosis in Germany.
BMJ Case Reports 2009
In fulminant blastomycosis with multiorgan failure, the earliest diagnosis possible is crucial for successful treatment. If severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) develops, miniaturised veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) might provide a unique and efficacious possibility to prolong the time frame for diagnosis and the beginning of treatment. This is the first report on a case of fatal blastomycosis in Germany. It reminds us to add exotic infections to the differential diagnosis in patients with refractory pneumonia in the era of worldwide tourism.
