- W3143178051 abstract "Macrophage activating syndrome (MAS) is a form of hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), a rare complication of autoimmune disease that is characterized by cytokine storm and multiorgan failure.A 32-year-old male presented with acutely decompensated pulmonary arterial hypertension and right heart failure secondary to MAS. The patient was immediately started on inhaled and intravenous epoprostenol, vasopressors and dexamethasone and anakinra were administered. Despite the therapies given, the patient's condition continued to decline, and he was placed on veno-arterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VA-ECMO) support. Over a few days, his clinical condition improved, and he was decannulated from VA-ECMO and later transitioned oral treprositinil and was discharged home. Due to its non-specific clinical manifestations, the diagnosis of MAS depends on high clinical suspicion and initial laboratory work up such as thrombocytopenia, transaminitis, hyperferritinemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypofibrinogenemia, etc. In our patient, MAS led to decompensated Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension (PAH) leading to right heart failure that was refractory to inhaled and intravenous epoprostenol and vasopressors and required VA-ECMO as a bridge to recovery while his MAS was managed by anakinra and dexamethasone.MAS can result in acute decompensation of PAH and right heart failure. Besides RV failure management, immunosuppressants such as anakinra, etoposide, etc. should be utilized early in the management of MAS. In refractory right heart failure, VA-ECMO can be considered as a bridge to recovery. There is a paucity of literature supporting the utilization of VA-ECMO in the management of refractory right heart failure caused by MAS in adults and much of the data stems from pediatric studies. This case serves as a fine example of successful use of VA-ECMO in adult population." @default.
