We present the case of a patient who suffered from acute respiratory distress syndrome caused by pneumonia associated with COVID-19 and cytokine release syndrome. This patient received a high-volume hemofiltration plus adsorption, solving the hemodynamic deterioration, pulmonary infiltrates, and gas exchange. Our clinical case proposes that the extracorporeal therapies can have a role in the management of severe COVID-19.
