Assessment with intracoronary pressure and flow guidewire, at baseline and after intracoronary adenosine infusion, in a patient with Takotsubo syndrome

Revista Portuguesa de Cardiologia, 2019
We present the case of a patient with Takotsubo syndrome assessed by intracoronary flow and pressure guidewire, showing elevation of intracoronary pressures at the level of the anterior descending artery, and thus demonstrating a new therapeutic target ...

Mortality risk stratification for Takotsubo syndrome: Evaluating CRP measurement alongside the InterTAK prognostic score

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1427-1436, April 2025.
Abstract Background and objectives Initially described as a benign acute cardiomyopathy, Takotsubo syndrome has been linked to elevated mortality rates. Emerging evidence suggests that unresolved myocardial inflammation may contribute to this adverse prognosis.

Takotsubo syndrome related to antazoline mesylate administration during atrial fibrillation cryoablation: rapid evolution of ST-segment elevations alternans and extensive left ventricular hypokinesis

Folia Cardiologica
Takotsubo syndrome is a stress-induced acute heart failure type, with its pathogenesis particularly attributed to sympathetic stimulation. In this paper, we report the case of a 62-year-old man who developed takotsubo syndrome following the ...

Clinical interpretation of cardiac troponin in athletes: From endurance exercise to exertional injury

PM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Exertional heat illness (EHI) and exertional rhabdomyolysis (ER) are increasingly recognized causes of morbidity in competitive and tactical athletes. Cardiac troponin (cTn) elevation, traditionally viewed as a marker of myocardial necrosis, may also be seen in these settings and can create significant diagnostic and prognostic uncertainty ...

Insulin Resistance in Takotsubo Syndrome

ESC Heart Failure, 2023
Abstract Aims Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is an acute heart failure (AHF) syndrome mimicking the symptoms of acute myocardial infarction. Impaired outcome has been shown, making risk stratification and novel therapeutic concepts a necessity.

Cardiac surveillance in immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: Insights from the Essen Cardio‐oncology Registry

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer therapy, offering improvements in survival across various malignancies. However, their toxicities pose a major challenge for cardio‐oncology units. Despite their growing importance, data on effectiveness of such specialized units in mitigating ICI‐associated ...

Refining the treatment of immune checkpoint inhibitor–associated myocarditis: Challenges, innovations and rechallenge considerations

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI)‐associated myocarditis has emerged as a severe and clinically complex immune‐related toxicity that poses significant challenges for therapeutic decision‐making in routine cardio‐oncological care. High‐dose corticosteroids remain the first‐line therapy, yet their timing, dosage and tapering require careful clinical ...

Acute myocardial infarction or Takotsubo syndrome in a patient with stunned myocardium due to myocardial bridging? A case report of diagnostic dilemma clarified after serial workup

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Background Myocardial bridging is a cardiac anomaly where a segment of epicardial coronary arteries runs through the myocardium and can rarely cause MI. Takotsubo syndrome is a stress-induced cardiomyopathy that can mimic MI.
