CASE PRESENTATION A 51-year-old Japanese woman consulted the emergency room complaining of the sudden onset of anterior chest pain while shopping. We initially suspected her disease as left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome based...

متن کاملApical ballooning syndrome (Takotsubo Syndrome): case report
INTRODUCTION The apical ballooning syndrome (ABS) is a single reversible cardiomyopathy often triggered by a stressful event. We aimed to present a case report regarding this disorder. CASE PRESENTATION Here we present the case of a 77-year-old female hypertensive patient, sedentary and non-smoker, diagnosed with apical ballooning syndrome. We describe the clinical signs and symptoms, changes...
متن کاملTakotsubo cardiomyopathy and structural abnormalities of the left anterior descending coronary artery.
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy can be divided in apical ballooning, mid-ventricular ballooning, and rarely in basal ballooning. The role of left anterior descending coronary artery is still in debate. Spasms, myocardial bridging and recurrent segment (wrap-around) LAD have been described in takotsubo cardiomyopathy. 8 patients (4 females, mean age 74.3 ± 9.7 years) with typical apical ballooning in 4...
متن کاملStress 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...
