| Popis: | Introduction In 2008, Children's National Hospital adopted a simple vessel sparing technique (VST) for neck extra corporeal membrane (ECMO) cannulation/decannulation that is technically simple and reproducible. In this study, we review a cohort of patients decannulated from venous-arterial (VA) ECMO using a VST with the goal of understanding flow dynamics and anatomic changes of the common carotid artery (CCA) after repair with a VST. Methods Patients supported with ECMO at a single, tertiary care center between 2008 and 2019 were identified. Patients were included in the analysis if they survived VA ECMO including VST decannulation and neck vessel imaging was completed with either magnetic resonance angiogram (MRA) or computerized tomography angiogram (CTA) post decannulation. The right CCA was assessed for patency and arteriopathy. Complications and feasibility of repeat ECMO cannulation via the neck vessels were also investigated. Results Three hundred and nineteen patients were identified as having received ECMO support in either the PICU or CICU between 2008 and 2019, of which 76 survived VA ECMO support via neck cannulation. Neck vessel imaging was obtained in 21 patients. Ten had imaging demonstrating a normal right CCA. The CCA was occluded in 3 and stenotic in 5. Vessel wall defects were present in 4. No definitive complication was associated with any of the arterial abnormalities. Repeat right CCA cannulation was achieved in 6/7 patients who needed additional VA ECMO support. Conclusions Repair of the right CCA with a simple VST can be achieved safely and consistently during VA ECMO support in pediatric patients. Vascular imaging of the right CCA was normal in almost half and repeat cannulation was achieved in most when pursued. Stenosis and vessel wall defects were common, thus neck vessel imaging post decannulation may be warranted for all patients with a right CCA repair after ECMO support. |
