RESUMO
Polycytemia vera (PV) is a rare myeloproliferative neoplasm associated with microcirculatory disturbances, thrombosis and bleeding. Patients suffering from PV have a high risk of perioperative adverse events, but the literature regarding on-pump procedures in PV patients is scarce. We report two cases of acute and severe oxygenator failure during cardiopulmonary bypass and present valid exit scenarios.
