Inverted stress- induced cardiomyopathy as a unusual variant of acute heart failure after cesarean delivery- a case report.

Rarely it regards basal segments, therefore defined as "inverted stress- induced cardiomyopathy". While classic form mostly affects postmenopausal women, inverted variant occurs essentially in younger females, always triggered by stress. It can al...

To the Editor: The interesting case report of Lee et al. published in the December 2013 issue of the Journal, of a 43-year-old woman who suffered inverted takotsubo syndrome (TTS) (left ventricular apical hyperkinesis with midventricular and basal hypokinesis/akinesis) in the setting of complicating pulmonary embolism (PE), following surgery for a malleolar fracture, managed surgically under sp...
متن کاملStress-induced cardiomyopathy after general anesthesia for total gastrectomy -A case report-
Stress-induced cardiomyopathy, which is also known as takotsubo cardiomyopathy, is a cardiac syndrome of a transient, reversible left ventricular dysfunction that is caused by emotional and/or physical stress and surgery. Its clinical manifestations are similar to those of myocardial ischemia without a coronary artery lesion. Stress-induced cardiomyopathy is more common in middle-aged women, an...
متن کاملTakotsubo Cardiomyopathy after Spinal Anesthesia for a Minimally Invasive Urologic Procedure
We present the case of a patient who suffered from Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) immediately after the initiation of subarachnoid anesthesia for a minimally invasive urologic procedure (tension-free vaginal tape (TVT) surgery for stress urine incontinence). TCM mimics acute coronary syndrome and is caused by an exaggerated sympathetic reaction to significant emotional or physical stress. Our p...
متن کاملConus Medullaris/Cauda Equina Syndrome Following a Repeated Bupivacaine 1% Spinal Anesthesia- Analysis of a Case with Review of the Literature
In the morning a healthy 40 years old female had a successful spinal anesthetic with bupivacaine 1% 10 mg for hemorrhoidectomy followed by a second injection at midnight for severe pain. The second traumatic injection caused a conus medullaris/cauda equina lesion discovered by MRI 45 days later. The contribution of hyperbaric bupivacaine dosage and pencil point needle is discussed.
