Cardiogenic Shock in Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Plus Apical Ballooning [PDF]
JACC: Case Reports, 2021 A patient with known obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy developed worsening left ventricular outflow tract obstruction, severe mitral regurgitation, and apical ballooning leading to cardiogenic shock, a combination in which treatment of each ...

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in a Caucasian Italian woman: Case report [PDF]
Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2007 Background Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is an acute cardiac syndrome characterized by transient LV regional wall motion abnormalities (with peculiar apical ballooning appearance), chest pain or dyspnea, ST-segment elevation and minor elevations of cardiac ...

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.

Two cases of apical ballooning syndrome masking apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Tex Heart Inst J, 2014 Apical akinesis and dilation in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease is a typical feature of stress-induced (takotsubo) cardiomyopathy, whereas apical hypertrophy is seen in apical-variant hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. We report the cases of 2 patients who presented with takotsubo cardiomyopathy and were subsequently found to have apical ...

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

24 hour ST segment analysis in transient left ventricular apical ballooning. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 OBJECTIVE: The etiologic basis of transient left ventricular apical ballooning, a novel cardiac syndrome, is not clear. Among the proposed pathomechanisms is coronary vasospasm.
