Clinical characteristics of aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage complicated by Takotsubo cardiomyopathy resulting in good neurological outcome

Background Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC) is a well-known complication of subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH), often accompanied by neurogenic myocardial dysfunction. Although TC has been reported to be associated with higher morbidity and mortality among patients with aneurysmal SAH (aSAH), some patients have been reported to recover, the profiles and follow-up outcomes of these survivors remain unclear.
