Acute Left Ventricular Ballooning: Tools to Differentiate Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy with Outflow Obstruction from Neurohumoral Takotsubo Syndrome

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Despite considerable interest in the syndrome of acute left ventricular (LV) ballooning, its pathophysiology has remained ill-defined. In this review, we explore observational data describing two etiologies of acute LV ballooning: neurohumoral classic ...

Extreme hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yesHeart, 2003
A 21 year old Jamaican woman with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) was referred for sudden death risk assessment. The initial diagnosis of HCM was made at the age of 13 years and mild exertional dyspnoea has occurred since age 15 (New York Heart Association functional class II), but without syncope or chest pain.
