Apical ballooning syndrome: a metabolic form of cardiomyopathy?
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a transient cardiomyopathy of unknown origin due to left ventricular apical ballooning. Although first described in Japanese patients, it is now diagnosed worldwide. The syndrome mimics acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction in the absence of significant epicardial coronary artery disease. Although significant efforts have

Left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome.
The transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome, also known as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, is characterized by transient left ventricular dysfunction in the absence of obstructive epicardial coronary disease. Although the syndrome has been reported in Japan since 1990, it is rare in other regions.
