We present the case of a 62-year-old man with severe coronary artery disease who presented to the hospital in refractory ventricular fibrillation cardiac arrest. He showed signs of life despite prolonged resuscitation. We thus decided to initiate extracorporeal cardiopulmonary resuscitation (ECPR). The patient had a known total occlusion of his infrarenal aorta that had been surgically bypassed with a bifemoral-axillary graft. We successfully initiated ECPR via the surgical graft, establishing blood flow to the central circulation through the axillary artery in a peripheral configuration while ensuring blood flow to the left leg via the femoral-femoral graft. The patient was extubated neurologically intact the following day and subsequently underwent coronary artery bypass graft surgery while on extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) support. He was subsequently weaned off inotropic support and decannulated from ECMO. He was discharged home neurologically intact and independent in his activities of daily living. This case demonstrates that cannulation for ECPR via a surgical vascular graft is possible and that a total occlusion of the infrarenal aorta in the presence of a surgical bypass is not an absolute contraindication to ECMO.
