| Popis: | of an early aggressive treatment was life saving. Compared with the scheduled device implantation in patients deteriorating on the waiting list, management of emergencies requiring circulatory support is still a challenging situation. We have developed in our unit a mobile kit of emergency circulatory support to deal with this problem. This ECLS has become a useful adjunct to our cardiac assist device program, allowing patient transfer and secondary implantation of a more long-term sophisticated device. As expected in this catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy, the patient recovered after surgical resection of the tumor, but recovery is not so fast as to allow the use of an ECLS device alone, and implantation of a long-term device was mandatory. |
