Myocardial perfusion and fatty acid metabolism in patients with tako-tsubo-like left ventricular dysfunction.
OBJECTIVES We sought to assess myocardial perfusion and metabolism in patients with peculiar transient asynergy, which consisted of basal normokinesia and apical akinesia of the left ventricle (LV) at the same time. BACKGROUND This asynergy has been widely called "tako-tsubo-like LV dysfunction" in Japan, but little is known about its pathophysiology. METHODS We performed rest tallium-201 (...
متن کاملValue of gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging in patients with Tako-Tsubo-like left ventricular dysfunction.
We present gadolinium-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) in Tako-Tsubo-like left ventricular dysfunction showing the findings in acute phase and in follow-up. Gadolinium-enhanced CMRI allows to distinguish between myocardial infarction and other myocardial alterations, e.g., myocarditis. CMRI may thus permit to non-invasively identify patients with Tako-Tsubo syndrome by ruling ...
