With growing experience, the indications for salvage extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
continue to expand. We describe a successful application of extracorporeal support in a
polytrauma patient presenting with profound hypothermia, respiratory failure, and whom was
later found to have an intracranial hemorrhage. We advocate the role of salvage therapy
even in patients with complex pathophysiology despite perceived relative or absolute
contraindications to extracorporeal support.
