Resolution of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome-Induced Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy with Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTCM) can occur in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and a few cases in literature were reported to be associated with hemodynamic instability. All these patients were managed with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO).Case presentation: We pre...

More Information
Summary:Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTCM) can occur in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and a few cases in literature were reported to be associated with hemodynamic instability. All these patients were managed with venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO).Case presentation: We present two patients with ARDS-induced TTCM who were managed successfully with venovenous ECMO (VV-ECMO). Ventricular function in both patients fully recovered three days after ECMO initiation, and they were subsequently weaned from ECMO once pulmonary function improved.
