Hemodynamic support with TandemHeart™ in tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy – a case report
Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy is characterized by chest pain, electrocardiographic abnormalities mimicking acute myocardial infarction, akinesis or dyskinesis of apical or mid left ventricular segments, and the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy is usually a potentially reversible form of cardiac dysfunction. A careful literature search revealed no previous re...

Its clinical presentation is similar to that of acute coronary syndrome. The diagn...
متن کاملRight Ventricle Involvement in Tako-Tsubo Cardiomyopathy.
We appreciate the kind comments of Dr. SanchezGomar and colleagues about our meta-analysis of left atrial (LA) size in athletes (1) as well as their novel use of cardiac magnetic resonance to assess LA volume more accurately in older former elite endurance athletes. Their results suggest that LA size adjusted for body surface area is almost 50% (58 14 ml/m vs. 39 14 ml/m) greater in their athle...
متن کاملCase report of Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy associated with repetitive anaesthesia in a female patient with Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy
BACKGROUND Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a rare disorder with high relevance for anaesthesia. It is an acute cardiac syndrome characterized by an acute onset of reversible left ventricular dysfunction associated with emotional and physical stress. This is the only case published of a patient having five severe Tako-Tsubo incidents in five consecutive general anaesthesia procedures within o...
