- Abstract
- (en) [Successive complications in takotsubo cardiomyopathy - pulmonary edema to cardiogenic shock acute to ventricular arrhythmia : A case report] Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), also known as "stress cardiomyopathy", manifests as transient left ventricular dysfunction and shares similarities with acute coronary syndrome (ACS). Although often considered benign, it has mortality rates and complications (cardiogenic shock, arrhythmias, etc.) close to those of ACS. This article reports on a clinical case of Takotsubo syndrome in a 70-year-old female patient who presented a series of complications. This serves as a reminder of the need for intensive follow-up during the acute phase.
