Stress Cardiomyopathy Induced by Refractory Hypoglycemia Due to Acute Sulfonylurea Intoxication.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a reversible syndrome that resembles a myocardial infarction but without typical coronary stenosis and with an apical "ballooning" image present on an echocardiogram. Multiple triggers have been linked to TCM but rarely, acute severe hypoglycemia. This is a case of a 39-year-old woman who was brought to the emergency department after being found unresponsive at home.
