Abstract
- Massive hemoptysis can have a rapid and potentially fatal clinical course. A 68-year-old woman presented with recurrent hemoptysis complicated by refractory hypoxemia and shock despite aggressive intervention. The use of veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation was a nontraditional intervention that ultimately proved to be lifesaving, but is by no means recommended for routine use in this setting.
