Fellows Corner: Venovenous-ECMO Assisted Tracheal Stenting For Malignant Central Airway Obstruction: A Case series

📣 We’re excited to welcome Faris Jamal Abu Za’nouneh, MD, Internal Medicine, UHIMRP, Honolulu, Hawaii, who will be presenting:

🫁 “Venovenous-ECMO Assisted Tracheal Stenting For Malignant Central Airway Obstruction: A Case Series”

Moderated by SAB Education Committee Member Dr. Danish Ahmad 👏

Malignant central airway obstruction (MCAO) is a life-threatening emergency — and managing it safely requires precision, planning, and innovation. In this compelling case series, Dr. Abu Za’nouneh walks through two high-stakes patients where VV-ECMO was used as a bridge to bronchoscopic intervention, achieving successful tracheal stenting and immediate airway improvement in both cases. 💡

This is a powerful look at how extracorporeal support can reduce the risk of respiratory arrest during some of the most challenging bronchoscopic procedures we face. ⚡🔬

🗓️ Mark your calendars — Tuesday, July 16th!
