Abstract
A 60-year old woman, sandwiched between two boats was brought to our hospital with severe respiratory failure. She was in pre-shock and there was extensive cutaneous emphysema from the face to abdomen. She required respirator support and bilateral chest tubes for hemopneumothorax. On the patient's 3rd hospital day, she received venovenous extracorporeal membrance oxgenation( ECMO) due to sudden ventilatory failure. The bronchofiberscopy revealed complete disruption of the left main bronchus and occlusion of the right one owing to blood clot and sputum. Because of significant destruction of the left main bronchus, we didn't attempt bronchoplasty, and performed left pneumonectomy under veno-venous (VV)-ECMO. The postoperative course was uneventful, and she was discharged after 30 days with satisfactory outcome.
