Transient Apical Thickening Following Apical Ballooning Syndrome: A Case Series

open access: yesEchocardiography, 2015
The authors describe transient apical thickening mimicking apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy following apical ballooning syndrome. These findings are observed on multimodality cardiac imaging and appear to constitute a novel entity. Possible pathophysiologic mechanisms are explored.

“Once apical ballooning, always apical ballooning?”

International Journal of Cardiology, 2008
Abstract It is important that a cardiologist knows and recognizes the entity of takotsubo cardiomyopathy or apical ballooning, but remains aware that a subsequent similar episode is not necessarily a recurrence of this syndrome. Relapse may be caused by "classical” coronary atherosclerosis, as described in this case report.

Apical Ballooning Resulting from Limbic Encephalitis

American Journal of Medicine, 2009
Neurogenic stunned myocardium is an increasingly recognized cause of left ventricular apical ballooning, or takotsubo cardiomyopathy. We report the first case of neurogenic stunned myocardium as a result of limbic encephalitis.This 73-year-old woman with anterograde and retrograde amnesia was investigated using electrocardiography, magnetic resonance ...

Transient apical ballooning syndrome — clinical characteristics, ballooning pattern, and long-term follow-up in a Swiss population

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology, 2009
BACKGROUND: Transient apical ballooning syndrome (TABS) or Takotsubo cardiomyopathy mimics acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction, but is considered to have a good prognosis with only moderate elevation of myocardial enzymes and full recovery of left ...
