Magnetocardiography in Diagnosis of Stress-Induced Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a difficult diagnosis to make as it frequently mimics acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Magnetocardiography (MCG) is a diagnostic modality with the potential to distinguish ischemic from nonischemic cardiac presentations.This case series includes 3 patients who were diagnosed with takotsubo cardiomyopathy and underwent MCG. The

Stress-induced cardiomyopathy [PDF]
A woman in her early 70s presented with chest pain, dyspnoea and diaphoresis 30 min after her husband expired in our hospital. Cardiac markers were elevated and there were acute changes in ECG suggestive for acute coronary syndrome. Echocardiogram showed apical akinesis, basal segment hyperkinesis with an ejection fraction of 30%.

Bidirectional Ventricular Tachycardia with Stress-Induced Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BDVT) is a rare electrocardiographic finding characterized by rapid, wide complex, alternating QRS morphology with 180-degree swings in the frontal plane axis or, less commonly, alternating right bundle branch and left bundle branch block morphology. The most proposed mechanisms for BDVT involve triggered activity

Thyroid Storm-induced Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Presenting as Acute Chest Pain: A Case Report
Introduction: Stress-induced cardiomyopathy is a rare but serious cause of chest pain, which in recent studies has been shown to carry a similar in-hospital mortality to acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction.
