lüll Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, or broken-heart syndrome Virani SS; Khan AN; Mendoza CE; Ferreira AC; de Marchena ETex Heart Inst J 2007[]; 34 (1): 76-9Takotsubo cardiomyopathy mimics acute coronary syndrome and is accompanied by reversible left ventricular apical ballooning in the absence of angiographically significant coronary artery stenosis. In Japanese, "takotsubo" means "fishing pot for trapping octopus," and the left ventricle of a patient diagnosed with this condition resembles that shape. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, which is transient and typically precipitated by acute emotional stress, is also known as "stress cardiomyopathy" or "broken-heart syndrome."Herein, we describe the clinical angiographic characteristics of 4 patients who exhibited this syndrome, and we review the existing literature and propose reasons to conduct prospective studies.|*Cardiomyopathies/diagnosis/etiology/physiopathology[MESH]|*Ventricular Dysfunction, Left/diagnosis/etiology/physiopathology[MESH]|Adult[MESH]|Coronary Angiography[MESH]|Echocardiography[MESH]|Electrocardiography[MESH]|Female[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Long QT Syndrome/diagnosis/etiology/physiopathology[MESH]|Male[MESH]|Middle Aged[MESH]|Stress, Psychological/complications[MESH]|Stroke Volume[MESH]|Syndrome[MESH] |
