Abstract

A female 66 year-old patient, not immunocompromised, was admitted in ICU for severe influenza complicated by severe acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) leading to extra-corporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). During ICU hospitalization, she developed a disseminated invasive aspergillosis with cerebral access and coronary occlusion which lead to cardiac arrest. Despite a successful revascularization procedure, the patient died of refractory shock.
