Takotsubo cardiomyopathy secondary to intracranial hemorrhage
Patients suffering from aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage often present with electrocardiogram (ECG) abnormalities that mimic cardiac ischemia, but documented left ventricular regional wall-motion dysfunction has rarely been reported. This report is intended to raise the awareness of possible ECG changes secondary to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We cared for a 55-year-old female with an acut...
متن کاملTakotsubo Cardiomyopathy Associated with Severe Hypocalcemia Secondary to Idiopathic Hypoparathyroidism

We report a case of takotsubo cardiomyopathy associated with severe hypocalcemia secondary to hypoparathyroidism. A 69-year-old woman presented with acute pulmonary edema caused by severe left ventricular dysfunction with apical ballooning compatible with takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Laboratory tests re...

متن کاملTakotsubo cardiomyopathy. An important differential diagnosis to acute myocardial infarction.
INTRODUCTION Sparse information with regard to the electrocardiographic (ECG) changes in Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) is available. The purpose of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics and electrocardiographic changes in a Danish cohort of patients with TC. We discuss the potential pathophysiological mechanisms of TC. METHODS Cases were registered during a three year period...
متن کاملStress Cardiomyopathy (Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy)
BACKGROUND Due to the rise in the number of reports of stress cardiomyopathy in the literature, awareness of this condition is increasing.
