Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Canadian Medical Education Journal, 2022
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a clinical condition of transient acute heart failure correlated to regional wall motion abnormalities extending beyond the distribution of a single epicardial coronary artery. It is classified into four major types: apical, basal, mid-ventricular and focal. Sympathetic nerve stimulation and catecholamine storm are the

Postoperative Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy in a Young Woman: A Case Report. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
Timeline of the patient's clinical course. ABSTRACT Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) can occur in young adults exposed to extreme physical stress, such as surgery, sepsis, and transfusion reactions. Mechanical recovery may precede electrical normalization, with ECG abnormalities persisting despite improved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Early

Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Mimicking ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction in a Postpartum Woman. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also known as Gebrochenes‐Herz syndrome, transient apical ballooning syndrome, apical ballooning cardiomyopathy, stress‐induced cardiomyopathy, or broken heart syndrome, is a rare disease triggered by stressful events, such as a high plasma concentration of catecholamines and their metabolites, which resembles acute ...

Postpartum Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy After Cesarean Delivery in the Setting of War-Related Stress: A Case Report and Literature Review. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Reverse Takotsubo syndrome should be considered in postpartum patients presenting with acute heart failure, particularly under extreme emotional stress. Early recognition and differentiation from peripartum cardiomyopathy are essential, given its rapid reversibility and favorable prognosis.

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Future Cardiology, 2007
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a disease in which patients present with signs and symptoms mimicking an acute coronary syndrome and, thus, undergo cardiac catheterization. At the time of catheterization, however, no critical coronary lesions are found.

Intricacies in Serial Electrocardiograms in a Patient With Takotsubo Syndrome Mimicking Apical Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

Clin Case Rep
ABSTRACT Some patients with takotsubo syndrome reveal transiently features of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy at imaging, particularly of the apical variety; this “pseudohypertrophy” is due to myocardial edema, and can be diagnosed by the absence of electrocardiogram evidence of left ventricular hypertrophy, and particularly a transient reduction of the ...
