RÉSUMÉ
Descreveu-se aqui o caso de um homem de 30 anos de idade com quadro de varicela grave, hipoxemia refratária, vasculite do sistema nervoso central e insuficiência renal anúrica. Foi necessário transporte por ambulância com suporte respiratório extracorpóreo veno-venoso, sendo este utilizado até a recuperação do paciente. Discute-se o potencial uso de oxigenação por membrana extracorpórea em países em desenvolvimento para o controle de doenças comuns nestas áreas.
A case of a 30 year-old man presenting with severe systemic chickenpox with refractory hypoxemia, central nervous system vasculitis and anuric renal failure is described. Ambulance transportation and support using veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation were necessary until the patient recovered. Ultimately, the potential use of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation support in low-middle income countries to manage common diseases is discussed.
