Barium contrast radiography had revealed a foreign body in the lower esophagus. During anesthesia, the patient regurgitated and developed respiratory failure and cyanosis. Despite immediate intubation, suction, and ventilatory management, respiratory parameters remained poor. Respiratory support with extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) enabled control of blood gas parameters, and tracheobronchial lavage with temporary complete airway occlusion was performed. ECMO was withdrawn once the respiratory status normalized (total support time: 3 h). Considering the possibility of hypoxia-induced brain damage, the patient was extubated on day 1. The dog was alert, changed positions, and drank water independently 5 h after extubation. However, neurological symptoms were observed 1 h later. Cranial magnetic resonance imaging was performed on day 6 owing to persistent neurological symptoms. Although no ECMO-related complications, such as cerebral infarction, hemorrhage, or herniation, were observed, the white matter exhibited hyposignal, indicating hypoxic encephalopathy. The patient died on day 8, without improvement in neurological symptoms. ECMO is an effective treatment option for dogs with respiratory failure, and its prompt introduction may improve survival.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ani15223247","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,10]],"date-time":"2025-11-10T11:47:27Z","timestamp":1762775247000},"page":"3247","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation for Acute Respiratory Failure in a Dog"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"15","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4240-2134","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Noriko","family":"Isayama","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Uenonomori Animal Hospital, Tokyo 110-0001, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yusuke","family":"Uchimura","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uenonomori Animal Hospital, Tokyo 110-0001, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8757-6154","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kenta","family":"Sasaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uenonomori Animal Hospital, Tokyo 110-0001, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Erika","family":"Maeda","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uenonomori Animal Hospital, Tokyo 110-0001, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Toshihisa","family":"Takahashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uenonomori Animal Hospital, Tokyo 110-0001, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Megumi","family":"Watanabe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Uenonomori Animal Hospital, Tokyo 110-0001, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yuji","family":"Hamamoto","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital, Nippon Veterinary and Life Science University, Tokyo 180-8602, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takeshi","family":"Mizuno","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Veterinary Medical Center, Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Tokyo 113-0032, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sayaka","family":"Suzuki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Japan Small Animal Medical Center, Saitama 359-0023, Japan"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1905","DOI":"10.1056\/NEJMct1103720","article-title":"Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation for ARDS in adults","volume":"365","author":"Brodie","year":"2011","journal-title":"N.
