PURPOSE: We demonstrate the complexities of managing pediatric patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy requiring neurosurgery, focusing on systemic anticoagulation, cardiac function, and medically refractory intracranial pressure (ICP).
METHODS: A 3.5-year-old female with Tetralogy of Fallot developed severe ischemic cerebral edema following post-operative cardiac arrest and required ECMO. This case, along with four additional cases of children requiring neurosurgery while on ECMO, was examined.
RESULTS: Emergency neurosurgical intervention in the primary case led to significant improvement, highlighting the delicate balance between managing ECMO-induced anticoagulation and urgent neurosurgical needs. The additional cases had variable outcomes, emphasizing the challenges of caring for these critically ill patients.
CONCLUSION: Successful management of children requiring ECMO support and neurosurgical intervention requires thoughtful multidisciplinary care. This report illustrates some of the nuances in such decision-making, and demonstrates one potential path to a good outcome.
