2. Figure 1
Severe pulmonary edema in a person rescued from a crevasse after successful ECMO-assisted resuscitation. Prolonged ECMO assistance was necessary for 27 hours because of massive reperfusion edema of the lung. Computed tomographic scan was performed after the patient was normothermic. ECMO, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.
