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 ...
