TI  - A new role of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation in the management of 
      tuberculosis with acute respiratory distress syndrome: A case report and review 
      of literature.

AB  - Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) can lead to acute respiratory distress syndrome 
      (ARDS), which can be at times fatal. Venovenous extracorporeal membrane 
      oxygenation (VV-ECMO) ensures adequate oxygenation and carbon dioxide removal, 
      avoiding ventilator-induced lung injury. We present a case where a young woman 
      with refractory respiratory failure caused by PTB, unresponsive to conventional 
      mechanical ventilation, but was successfully managed with prolonged VV-ECMO 
      support. The patient diagnosed with PTB was started on antitubercular treatment 
      but went into respiratory failure and ARDS. The patient was put on mechanical 
      ventilation, on which she was not improving. The patient was then put on ECMO. On 
      the 9(th) day, lung compliance and gas exchange were good enough to resume 
      conventional mechanical ventilation. ECMO was weaned and removed. This is one of 
      few cases of survival of the patient with PTB with ARDS utilizing ECMO.
