Malignant Arrhythmia and Cardiac Arrest Following Intentional Yew Tree Leaf Ingestion Salvaged by <scp>VA</scp> ‐ <scp>ECMO</scp>

This case emphasizes the role of multidisciplinary involvement and early decision-making in yew tree (<i>Taxus baccata)</i> poisoning. <i>Taxus baccata</i> contains taxine alkaloids that predispose to malignant arrhythmia. Here, we present a case of <i>Taxus baccata</i> toxicity presenting with refractory cardiac arrest, salvaged ultimately by VA-ECMO.
