Takotsubo cardiomyopathy case series: typical, atypical and recurrence.

摘要: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is characterised by a transient left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, ECG changes that can imitate acute myocardial infarction and positive cardiac biomarkers in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. The exact pathogenesis TCM unclear but emotional or physical stress common denominator. We present three cases encompassing spectrum disease: A typical with apical LV dyskinesis, an atypical mid-ventricular regions affected recurrence. Our show symptoms vary between individuals may same patient. All our patients reported prior to onset symptoms, had systolic non-obstructed arteries. In all cases, dysfunction eventually improved. account for 0.7–2.5% syndromes. It more prevalent female population reoccur. Treatment mainly supportive.
