Background: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) mimics acute coronary syndromes but can lead to serious cardiac complications, emphasizing the need for improved understanding and management.
Case Summary: We describe a TTS case presented with cardiogenic shock due to ventricular septal rupture (VSR). Successful treatment involved mechanical circulatory support followed by VSR surgical closure.
Discussion: Ventricular septal rupture is the rarest and deadliest complication associated with TTS. Prompt recognition and a multidisciplinary approach are crucial to achieve the best possible outcome.
