Side-Arm Grafts for Femoral Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation Cannulation

Main Zone, Mobile Zone, Perfusion Devices, Perfusion Zone

We describe our experience with the use of a side-arm graft sewn to the femoral artery that facilitates adequate extracorporeal membrane oxygenation flow while preventing lower extremity ischemia.
