Abstract

  The Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is a rare hemodynamic dysfunction, only recently reported . While the diagnostic criteria have been established and the outcome is known as favourable, the pathophysiological mechanisms are not entirely understood. Here we present the case of a patient scheduled for laparoscopic hysterectomy, who postoperatively developed a Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, supposedly triggered by an acute hypertensive crisis and emotional stress.

 Keywords: Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy; Transient LeftVentricular Apical Ballooning Syndrome; Stress­Induced Cardiomyopathy And Broken Heart Syndrome.
