Transient Left Ventricular Apical Ballooning Syndrome and Cardiac Dysfunction after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Similar Clinical Entities?
Universally accepted diagnostic criteria for transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome are not yet available and the cardiac dysfunction complicating subarachnoid hemorrhage drops several hints of discussion about the clinical and pathophysiological similarities with the “typical” transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome.

متن کاملAssessment of clinical features in transient left ventricular apical ballooning.
OBJECTIVES We sought to assess the clinical features of transient left ventricular (LV) apical ballooning. BACKGROUND Although several cases regarding transient LV apical ballooning have been reported, the etiology remains unknown. METHODS We investigated 17 patients (14 women, median age 74 years old with a range of 54 to 91 years old) who fulfilled the following criteria: 1) transient LV ...
متن کامل[Transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome--a case report].
We present a case of a 78-year-old female who was admitted to the hospital due to clinical and electrographic features of ST-elevation acute myocardial infarction. Coronary angiography revealed normal coronary arteries and severe left ventricular contractility abnormalities, detected initially by echocardiography, which resolved within 20 days from hospital admission. Because of these findings ...
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...
