Takotsubo Syndrome in the Setting of COVID-19
A 58-year-old woman was admitted with symptoms of coronavirus disease-2019.

Over the next few days her left ve...

description | A 58-year-old woman was admitted with symptoms of coronavirus disease-2019. She subsequently developed mixed shock, and an echocardiogram showed mid-distal left ventricular hypokinesis and apical ballooning, findings typical of stress, or takotsubo, cardiomyopathy. Over the next few days her left ventricular function improved, the further supporting the reversibility of acute stress cardiomyopathy. (Level of Difficulty: Beginner.) |
