Interventional treatment of bleeding complications due to percutaneous cannulation for peripheral extracorporeal membrane oxygenation - 05/06/19
Abstract |
Purpose |
This study aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of interventional techniques as a treatment for bleeding complications secondary to percutaneous cannulation for peripheral extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (PECMO).
Materials and methods |
Out of 1264 patients who underwent PECMO at our hospital between January 2009 and September 2018, we reviewed the clinical characteristics and outcomes of eight patients (4 men, 4 women; mean age, 54.9 years [range, 31–77 years]) who underwent percutaneous interventional treatment for bleeding complications secondary to percutaneous cannulation for PECMO.
Results |
Both hemodynamic instability and coagulopathy were present in 7 patients who had direct injury during PECMO insertion and absent in one patient with pseudoaneurysm at the PECMO removal site. Percutaneous ultrasound-guided thrombin injection was performed in three patients with pseudoaneurysm of the common or superficial femoral artery, and adjunctive embolization was combined with microcoils or n-butyl 2-cyanoacrylate in two of them. Stent graft was inserted in four patients with contrast extravasation (n=3) from external iliac artery (n=1) or common femoral or iliac veins (n=2) ruptures or the fistula between the superficial femoral artery and vein (n=1). N-butyl 2-cyanoacrylate and coil embolization was performed for pseudoaneurysm from the internal pudendal artery branch in the remaining one patient. Technical success was achieved in all eight patients. There were no procedure-related complications. There was no rebleeding during the follow-up.
Conclusion |
Interventional treatment is a safe, technically feasible and therapeutically effective modality for treating bleeding complications secondary to a percutaneous cannulation for PECMO.
