This case of Takotsubo syndrome in a young, non-stressed female highlight that it can present across various ages and ECG patterns, suggesting a need for further genetic research. In ECGs showing ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), non-invasive coronary evaluation should be prioritized over direct angiography. Echocardiographic GLS strain can help predict prognosis and facilitate early recovery.

Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy: A Consequence of Blunt Chest Trauma.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC), also known as stress-induced cardiomyopathy or "broken heart syndrome," is a transient form of myocardial dysfunction often triggered by emotional or physical stress. While typically associated with emotional distress and possible physical stress, TTC has rarely been reported in the context of physical trauma, including blunt chest injuries. This case report describes a novel instance of TTC in an 84-year-old woman who developed the condition following a motor vehicle accident, resulting in blunt chest trauma.

Long-term outcomes and worse clinical course in Takotsubo syndrome patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.

Aims: Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is usually triggered by either physical/psychological stressors or comorbidities, neurological among others. The prevalence of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) among TTS and whether it has a worse clinical course is not known. We aim to describe ALS prevalence and its impact on clinical presentation, clinical course, and long-term mortality.
