Introduction Patients with severe respiratory failure and veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO) often require diagnostic or therapeutic thoracic surgery. Methods Retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data (Regensburg ECMO Registry) on all patients requiring vv-ECMO between December 2010 and December 2016 due to acute lung failure (ALF) with diagnostic or therapeutic thoracic surgery. Endpoints were the indications for thoracic surgery as well as postoperative morbidity and in-hospital mortality. Results A total of 418 patients (male n = 285, 68%, mean age 50.0 +/- 16.5 years) with severe respiratory insufficiency refractory to conventional therapy required vv-ECMO. Indications for vv-ECMO were ALF due to pneumonia (59.8%), postoperative (18.7%), posttraumatic (9.8%), after chemotherapy (2.8%) and others (8.9%). Overall, in 24.4% (n = 102) of patients with vv-ECMO surgery was performed. Of these, 28.4% (n = 29) of patients required thoracic surgery. Primary indications for thoracic surgery were most frequently therapeutic due to hemothorax (n = 13; 44.8%), followed by carnifying pneumonia/pulmonary abscess (n = 5; 17.2%), pleural empyema (n = 3; 10.3%) and others (n = 3; 10.3%). In patients with interstitial lung disease of unknown origin (n = 5; 17.2%), diagnostic pulmonary biopsy was performed. For initial thoracic intervention thoracotomy was carried out in 93.1% (n = 27) of patients, whereas only two patients (6.9%) received thoracoscopy. At least one repeated thoracotomy was performed in 15 patients (51.7%) and nine patients (31.0%) underwent more than two surgeries. In-hospital mortality of patients with thoracic surgery (44.8%) was higher than in patients without thoracic surgery (35.7%; p = 0.326). Conclusion Thoracic surgery in patients with vv-ECMO warrants strict indications, because postoperative complications are common and surgical revision (58,6%) is often required. Therefore, ECMO therapy should only be carried out in specialised centers with thoracic surgery.
