Stress Cardiomyopathy: A Case of Apical Ballooning Syndrome followed by Mid-ventricular Ballooning Syndrome as Recurrence
Stress cardiomyopathy has an association with emotional or physical stressors and is found to be more common in postmenopausal women. It has a similar presentation as acute myocardial infarction. Involvement of apex at the initial presentation and recurrence at the mid ventricular segment is rare. We describe a case of a 46 year old female with apical involvement at the initial presentation but...
متن کاملApical ballooning syndrome or takotsubo cardiomyopathy: a systematic review.
AIMS To clarify the major features of the apical ballooning syndrome, we performed a systematic review of the existing literature. METHODS AND RESULTS Review of all relevant case series using the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases resulted in the identification of 14 studies. These studies suggest that the apical ballooning syndrome accounts for approximately 2.0% of ST-segment elevation infarcts, ...
متن کاملTransient apical ballooning in hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy.
A 79-year-old white woman with known hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) presented with sudden-onset chest pain and no identifiable stressor. Examination suggested a new apical 3/6 systolic murmur and pulmonary edema. A 12-lead electrocardiogram showed anterolateral wall ischemia. The patient’s peak troponin T level was 2.5 ng/mL. Echocardiography revealed a basal hypertrophied septu...
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 کاملSeverely impaired microvascular reactivity in diabetic patients with an acute coronary syndrome.
BACKGROUND Microvascular function is impaired in patients with stable coronary artery disease. The aim was to study microvascular function in patients with diabetes and acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS Microvascular function was evaluated in 83 patients by laser Doppler fluxmetry (LDF) [PU; perfusion unit, median (interquartile range)] measuring resting LDF and peak LDF following a six ...
