[Extracorporeal oxygenation in newborn infant born to diabetic mother with severe hypertrophic myocardiopathy].
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a common complication in infants born to diabetic mothers but it is rarely life threatening.


METHODS
A neonate born to a diabetic mother with a severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with life threatening respiratory and haemodynamic distress was successfully supported by extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.


CONCLUSIONS
Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation can be an efficient transitory therapy for very severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy in infants of diabetic mothers.
