Neurogenic stunned myocardium with ventriculoperitoneal shunt malfunction.
The syndrome of left ventricular dysfunction in patients without obstructive coronary artery disease following central nervous system injury is termed neurogenic stunned myocardium (NSM). It has been described most commonly in association with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Nonspecific electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities, elevated troponin I levels, and reversible regional-wall motion ab...

متن کاملNeurogenic stunned myocardium following hemorrhagic cerebral contusion.
Neurogenic stunned myocardium (NSM) is a well-known complication of subarachnoidal hemorrhage, but has been reported rarely in association with other central nervous system disorders. A case of NSM is described in a patient with hemorrhagic brain contusion associated with cerebral edema. An 18-year-old man was admitted with severe cranial trauma following a car roll-over. Six days after admissi...
متن کاملA Review of Neurogenic Stunned Myocardium
Neurologic stunned myocardium (NSM) is a phenomenon where neurologic events give rise to cardiac abnormalities. Neurologic events like stroke and seizures cause sympathetic storm and autonomic dysregulation that result in myocardial injury. The clinical presentation can involve troponin elevation, left ventricular dysfunction, and ECG changes. These findings are similar to Takotsubo cardiomyopa...
