Treadmill exercise testing is a commonly used diagnostic test for the assessment of chest discomfort and exercise-induced arrhythmias. The presence of ST-segment elevation during exercise is considered a marker of severe ischaemia, usually secondary to a critical lesion in a proximal coronary artery. We present a novel cause of ST-segment elevation during exercise testing: "broken heart syndrom...
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a syndrome characterized by transient acute left ventricular dysfunction, electrocardiographic changes that can mimic acute myocardial infarction and minimal release of myocardial enzymes in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Reports of Takotsubo syndrome after cardiac surgery are exceptional. We describe a case of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy in a 68-ye...
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC), synonymous with apical ballooning syndrome, broken heart syndrome, stress induced/ ampulla cardiomyopathy is characterized by transient left ventricular dysfunction of apical ( typical) or mid segments (atypical), mimicking acute myocardial infarction in the absence of significant coronary artery disease . We report a rare case of recurrent takotsubo cardiomyopath...
BACKGROUND Takotsubo cardiomyopathy also known as transient balooning syndrome is an increasingly reported phenomenon characterized by acute reversible apical or midventricular dysfunction. This stress- induced cardiomyopathy mimics myocardial infarction, but without significant coronary artery disease, and rarely presents in perioperative period. METHODS AND RESULTS We report a case of postm...
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a fatal disease. Intravenous prostanoids are often utilized for long-term management of patients. The therapy requires a significant commitment and change in lifestyle for both the patient and family. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, transient apical ballooning syndrome, has been reported in association with emotional and physical stress. This case report describes a...
BACKGROUND The natural history, management, and outcome of takotsubo (stress) cardiomyopathy are incompletely understood. METHODS The International Takotsubo Registry, a consortium of 26 centers in Europe and the United States, was established to investigate clinical features, prognostic predictors, and outcome of takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Patients were compared with age- and sex-matched pati...
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy simulates acute myocardial infarction, and it is characterised by reversible left ventricular failure. A case of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy diagnosed after emergency angiography performed in a patient with evidence of acute myocardial infarction in the postoperative period will be described in this report. Transurethral resection of a bladder tumour (TUR-BT) was performed...
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy typically presents in menopausal women following episodes of intense physical or mental stress. To our knowledge, the literature contains only two documented cases of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy arising following a suicide attempt, neither of which involved pharmaceutical poisoning. Here, however, we document the case of a young male patient with borderline personality dis...
BACKGROUND Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is an increasingly recognized acute heart failure syndrome precipitated by intense emotional stress. Although there is an apparent rapid and spontaneous recovery of left ventricular ejection fraction, the long-term clinical and functional consequences of takotsubo cardiomyopathy are ill-defined. METHODS In an observational case-control study, we recruited 3...
BACKGROUND It remains to be elucidated whether brain activity is altered in takotsubo cardiomyopathy. METHODS AND RESULTS We measured cerebral blood flow (CBF) in 3 consecutive patients with takotsubo cardiomyopathy using (99m)Tc ethyl cysteinate dimmer single photon-emission computed tomography (SPECT) in the acute and chronic phases. In all patients, CBF was significantly increased in the h...
