Résumé

Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a life-threatening inflammatory state of lung injury that can require acute interventions including mechanical ventilation as well as emergent veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) for management. Etiologies of ARDS are not clearly discernible in certain cases and can vary from sepsis, pneumonia, trauma and intoxication. Anti-nuclear cytoplasmic auto-antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is a group of several conditions that can have pulmonary complications including ARDS. We present a case where the primary manifestation of myeloperoxidase (MPO)-ANCA positive vasculitis was ARDS, in order to highlight the importance of investigating rare vasculitides as the underlying cause of ARDS and the importance of ECMO as an early life-saving intervention for the management of ARDS.
