Broken Heart Syndrome: A Rare Case of Recurrent Reverse Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Associated with Acute Respiratory Failure.
Galen Med J

Division of Cardiology, Pikeville Medical Center, Kentucky, USA.
Background: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy accounts for one percent of acute coronary syndrome presentations and has been increasingly recognized [1]. Reverse Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, a variant form of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy presenting with the hyperdynamic function of the apical segments and hypokinesis of the basal or mid-ventricular segments is the rarest type of acute stress cardiomyopathy, with mid-ventricular akinesia and preservation of apical and basal contractility [2].

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy has a different presentation spectrum, including left ventricular outflow tract obstruction. The most common phenotype is the asymmetric septal variant, with the mid-apical variant being rare. On the other hand, there are specific mutations associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, with the Filamin C variant being an unusual condition in these patients.

Department of Radiology, Iwate Medical University, Yahaba, Japan.
This case report shows unique aneurysm at the left ventricular apex associated with a double-chambered left ventricle (DCLV) in asymptomatic 69-year-old female. The aneurysm was located at the apex of an accessory chamber, which was formed by hypertrophied muscle band and the interventricular septum, along with a pronounced jet flow directed towards the apex aneurysm. These finding suggests that the obstruction at the base of the accessory chamber caused a pressure overload at the apex, ultimately leading to the development of the aneurysm.

Transvenous coronary ethanol ablation may be successfully applied to simultaneously treat ventricular arrhythmia superimposed within a segment of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. This presentation nicely describes this emerging technique for ventricular tachycardia ablation and identifies potential additional benefits of venous ethanol administration in patients with left ventricular obstructive physiology.
