Résumé

We demonstrate the complexities of managing pediatric patients on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) therapy requiring neurosurgery, focusing on systemic anticoagulation, cardiac function, and medically refractory intracranial pressure (ICP). A 3.5-year-old female with Tetralogy of Fallot developed severe ischemic cerebral edema following post-operative cardiac arrest and required ECMO. This case, along with four additional cases of children requiring neurosurgery while on ECMO, was examined. Emergency neurosurgical intervention in the primary case led to significant improvement, highlighting the delicate balance between managing ECMO-induced anticoagulation and urgent neurosurgical needs. The additional cases had variable outcomes, emphasizing the challenges of caring for these critically ill patients. Successful management of children requiring ECMO support and neurosurgical intervention requires thoughtful multidisciplinary care. This report illustrates some of the nuances in such decision-making, and demonstrates one potential path to a good outcome.
