TI  - Venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation as an early treatment for 
      amniotic fluid embolism with cardiac arrest: A case report.

AB  - Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is a rare but fatal obstetric complication, 
      characterized by sudden cardiovascular collapse, respiratory failure, and 
      disseminated intravascular coagulation. Maternal mortality associated with AFE is 
      high, making early recognition and prompt treatment important. In AFE with 
      cardiac arrest, survival following acute cardiopulmonary dysfunction is crucial. 
      In recent years, venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) has 
      attracted attention as an aggressive treatment for AFE with cardiac arrest. A 
      40-year-old woman experienced sudden cardiac arrest due to AFE during cesarean 
      section. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation and VA-ECMO (also called percutaneous 
      cardiopulmonary support) were initiated early. Finally, she recovered without any 
      complications. VA-ECMO can provide temporary respiratory and hemodynamic support 
      until cardiopulmonary function improves after a few days in intensive care. 
      VA-ECMO should be considered as an early treatment for AFE with cardiac arrest.
