TI  - Intraoperative Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation as Rescue for a 
      Patient With an Inhalational Burn and Iatrogenic Upper Airway Injury: A Case 
      Report.

AB  - Venovenous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is a well-established 
      alternative oxygenation method for critically ill patients. A 58-year-old male 
      was transferred to our level 1 trauma and burn center after sustaining an 
      inhalational injury from a carburetor explosion, with subsequent iatrogenic 
      tracheal injury and emergent cricothyrotomy before arrival. During attempted 
      surgical airway stabilization, our ability to ventilate and oxygenate was 
      compromised. Intraoperative VV-ECMO enabled rescue from severe hypoxemia and 
      subsequent recovery without lasting neurologic sequelae. This case highlights the 
      utility of VV-ECMO for acute intraoperative rescue.
