Key result
A 57-year-old woman with suspected acute coronary syndrome and transient left ventricular dyskinesia was diagnosed with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy after a negative coronary angiogram, with full recovery within a week.
Case Report (n=1)
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy should be considered in the differential diagnosis of patients presenting with suspected acute coronary syndrome who have transient left ventricular dysfunction and normal coronary arteries.
May support including Takotsubo in ACS differentials with normal coronaries; leaves open need for prospective validation.

Zajíček et al. (2007) conducted a case report in Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (n=1). Conservative management was evaluated on Normalization of left ventricular kinetics. A 57-year-old woman with suspected acute coronary syndrome and transient left ventricular dyskinesia was diagnosed with Takotsubo cardiomyopathy after a negative coronary angiogram, with full recovery within a week.
