A 62-year-old man had circulatory failure from massive pulmonary embolism following a road accident. Despite intensive therapy including urokinase infusion, inotropic drugs, and mechanical ventilation, the patient's circulatory status deteriorated. When it became impossible to maintain the mean systemic arterial pressure above 50 mm. Hg and the cardiac index above 1 L. per minute per square meter, circulatory support by partial cardiopulmonary bypass with a membrane lung was begun. Acute circulatory failure and acute pulmonary hypertension were promptly reduced by this procedure, and patient's status necessitated only intravenous heparin infusion and mechanical ventilation. After 60 hours of bypass the patient was weaned from the membrane lung, and 1 month later he was discharged from the hospital.
