Paradoxical coronary vasospasm and transient apical ballooning in a post-menopausal woman: An imaging case report of an unusual INOCA presentation [PDF]

American Heart Journal Plus, 2022
Ischemia with non-obstructive coronary artery disease (INOCA), a common cause of angina, can occur due to coronary vasospasm, microvascular dysfunction, endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis or a combination of these mechanisms.

Apical-Ballooning Syndrome [PDF]

Lancet, The, 2007
Case presentation: A 60-year-old woman presented to the emergency department 2 hours after the onset of severe retrosternal chest pain that started soon after she was told that her son had died in a car accident. A 12-lead ECG demonstrated ST-elevation in the precordial leads (Figure 1), and the plasma troponin T level was elevated at 0.07 ng/mL.

Apical ballooning without apical ballooning [PDF]

European Heart Journal, 2006
A 63-year-old woman presented with a sudden exacerbation of chronic obstructive lung disease and elevated levels of cardiac troponin T (0.5 ng/mL). The electrocardiogram exhibited sinus tachycardia, P-pulmonale, and diffuse T-wave inversion. The echocardiogram displayed markedly impaired left ventricular function.

Apical ballooning in relatives [PDF]

Heart, 2004
Apical ballooning of the left ventricle was first introduced as takotsubo-like left ventricular dysfunction in 1990 by Satoh and colleagues. The syndrome is characterised by reversible extensive akinesia of the apical and mid-portions of the left ventricle with hypercontraction of the basal segment. For the first time two sisters with this syndrome are
