Takotsubo syndrome is an acquired reversible cardiomyopathy. Incidence is estimated to be around 5.2 per 100.000 females and 0.6 per 100.000 males in the United States for 2008. Mostly occurs in females between the ages of 62-72 in 90% of the cases. Both

Introduction: Takotsubo syndrome or stress cardiomyopathy is characterized by a transient regional systolic dysfunction, mainly of the left ventricle that simulates an acute myocardial infarction, but in the absence of angiographic evidence of ...

Takotsubo syndrome is a reversible acute heart failure frequently precipitated by an emotional or physical stress. The clinical presentation resembles acute coronary syndrome. Pathogenesis is complex and may involve brain-heart axis and neuro-hormonal stunning of the myocardium.

Pathophysiology of Takotsubo Syndrome [PDF]
Originally described by Japanese authors in the 1990s, Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) generally presents as an acute myocardial infarction characterized by severe left ventricular dysfunction. TTS, however, differs from an acute coronary syndrome because patients have generally a normal coronary angiogram and left ventricular dysfunction, which extends ...

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

The Immunology of Takotsubo Syndrome
Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a disorder characterized by transient cardiac dysfunction with ventricular regional wall motion abnormalities, primarily thought to be caused by the effects of a sudden catecholamine surge on the heart. Although the majority of patients exhibit prompt recovery of their cardiac dysfunction, TTS remains associated with ...
