A case of takotsubo cardiomyopathy: transient left ventricular apical ballooning.
A 78-year-old woman was admitted to hospital with central chest pain and the electrocardiographic and cardiac marker changes typical of acute anterior myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography revealed normal epicardial coronary arteries, and left ventriculography showed apical akinesis as well as basal hyperkinesis.

متن کاملTakotsubo cardiomyopathy recurrence with left ventricular apical ballooning following isolated right ventricular involvement: A case report
We report a case of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, which involved the right ventricle at first presentation and demonstrated involvement of the left ventricle during recurrence. The patient was admitted to Kyung Hee University Hospital due to a left hip fracture, which was considered a result of physical stress. Complete recovery was confirmed by echocardiography prior to recurrence. The cause of th...
متن کاملReversible left ventricular dysfunction "takotsubo" cardiomyopathy associated with pneumothorax.
An 83 year old woman presented to the emergency department with chest pain and dyspnoea. Chest radiography showed pneumothorax of the left lung. Arteries were normal on coronary angiography. Left ventriculography showed asynergy of apical akinesis and basal hyperkinesis. Within 18 days, the asynergy improved without any specific treatment. In the present case the left ventricular dysfunction ma...
