Abstract

We present the case of a 71-year-old woman with severe bilateral primary alveolar proteinosis admitted for bilateral whole lung lavage (WLL) with a double-lumen endotracheal tube. She had a cardiac arrest of respiratory origin during the procedure and recovered after one minute of advanced resuscitation. A second LLP was scheduled under respiratory support with veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO). During this second WLL the patient was completely VV-ECMO-dependent, and the procedure was successfully completed. She was gradually weaned over the next 48 h. The patient was finally discharged after clinical improvement and home oxygen therapy was discontinued. WLL is the treatment of choice for severe cases of alveolar proteinosis. In rare cases the intervention may be poorly tolerated due to the degree of lung involvement. This case illustrates how VV-ECMO support is an option that may benefit this subgroup of at-risk patients.

Resumen

Se presenta el caso de una mujer de 71 años con proteinosis alveolar primaria bilateral grave que ingresa para lavado pulmonar bilateral total (LPT) con tubo endotraqueal de doble luz. Presenta parada cardiaca de origen respiratorio durante el procedimiento, recuperada tras un minuto de reanimación avanzada. Se programó en un segundo tiempo bajo soporte respiratorio con membrana de oxigenación extracorpórea veno-venosa (ECMO-VV). Durante este segundo LPT quedó completamente dependiente de ECMO-VV y pudo completarse con éxito. El destete se realizó paulatinamente a lo largo de las siguientes 48 horas. La paciente pudo ser finalmente dada de alta con mejoría clínica y retirada la oxigenoterapia domiciliaria. El LPT es el tratamiento de elección para los casos graves de proteinosis alveolar. En casos excepcionales la intervención puede ser mal tolerada por el grado de afectación pulmonar. Este caso ilustra cómo el soporte con ECMO-VV es una opción de la que pueden beneficiarse este subgrupo de pacientes de riesgo.
