Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Masquerading as Acute Coronary Syndrome.
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, also called transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome or Gebrochenes-Herz-Syndrome, is a rare entity which may masquerade as acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with sudden onset of chest pain and/or dyspnea, transient left ventricle apical akinesia, electrocardiographic changes typical of ACS and mild increase in cardiac enzymes in the background of normal coron...
متن کاملApical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy mimicking acute coronary syndrome.
We present a case who was initially thought to have an acute coronary syndrome but who was later diagnosed to have an apical hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Interestingly, the diagnosis could be established with left heart catheterization, not echocardiography.
متن کاملTransient Left Ventricular Apical Ballooning (Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy): Mimicking Acute Coronary Syndrome
Transient left ventricular apical dyskinesia accompanied by chest pain, mimicking acute coronary syndrome, dynamic reversible ST-T segment abnormalities, minimal myocardial enzymes release disproportionate to the extent of dyskinesia,in the absence of obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease is characteristic of transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome.1 It was first describe...
متن کاملAcute myocardial infarction with “wrap around” right coronary artery mimicking Takotsubo cardiomyopathy: a case report
BACKGROUND Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) is a cardiomyopathy that shows distinctive clinical conditions first described more than 20 years ago. Because clinical features of TC mimic those of anterior acute myocardial infarction (AMI), the differential diagnosis is important in selecting the appropriate treatment strategy in the acute phase. But it was difficult to differentiate those two diseas...
متن کاملTakotsubo Cardiomyopathy: A Cardiac Syndrome Mimicking Acute Myocardial Infarction in a Liver Transplant Recipient
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a rare clinical syndrome defined as a profound but reversible left ventricular dysfunction in the absence of coronary artery disease. We describe the clinical features and management of TC manifesting in the postoperative period in a patient undergoing liver transplantation. Two days after surgery, the patient developed clinical features of acute myocardial inf...
