Mid-septal hypertrophy and apical ballooning; potential mechanism of ventricular tachycardia storm in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Medically refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) storm can be controlled with radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA), however, it may be difficult to control in some patients with hemodynamic overload. We experienced a patient with intractable VT storm

Left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome.

open access: yesJournal of the College of Physicians and Surgeons--Pakistan : JCPSP, 2015
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.

Transient biventricular apical ballooning: a unique presentation of the broken heart .

open access: yes, 2007
Transient left ventricular (LV) apical ballooning and normal epicardial coronary arteries are the hallmarks of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. The syndrome is often triggered by emotional or physiologic stress, and its pathogenesis is poorly understood ...
