Three dimensional echocardiography of tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy with atrial myxoma.
DESCRIPTION A 63-year-old woman without any significant medical history presented with acute thoracic pain and dyspnoea after alcohol abuse and an argument with her husband. Her initial electrocardiography showed giant negative T waves in all precordial leads. Troponin T, creatine kinase and creatine kinase MB concentrations were only slightly increased.

متن کاملTako-tsubo cardiomyopathy
Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy (transient left ventricular apical ballooning) is a reversible form of cardiomyopathy of unknown etiology. Tako-tsubo Cardiomyopathy (TTC) is typically precipitated by sudden emotional or physical stress, and is associated with excessive sympathetic stimulation and catecholamine release. Its clinical presentation is similar to that of acute coronary syndrome. The diagn...
متن کاملRight Ventricle Involvement in Tako-Tsubo Cardiomyopathy.
We appreciate the kind comments of Dr. SanchezGomar and colleagues about our meta-analysis of left atrial (LA) size in athletes (1) as well as their novel use of cardiac magnetic resonance to assess LA volume more accurately in older former elite endurance athletes. Their results suggest that LA size adjusted for body surface area is almost 50% (58 14 ml/m vs. 39 14 ml/m) greater in their athle...
متن کاملCase report of Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy associated with repetitive anaesthesia in a female patient with Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy
BACKGROUND Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a rare disorder with high relevance for anaesthesia. It is an acute cardiac syndrome characterized by an acute onset of reversible left ventricular dysfunction associated with emotional and physical stress. This is the only case published of a patient having five severe Tako-Tsubo incidents in five consecutive general anaesthesia procedures within o...
