Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is a transient ventricular dysfunction with apical ballooning triggered by emotional and/or physical stress. A few risk factors have been observed in patients with recurrent TTS, for example, excessive sympathetic stimuli, medications, stress, and tumors. Clinical features can vary from chest pain to overt hemodynamic instability. Diagnosis requires both electrocardiographic features and invasive imaging such as angiography to rule out other causes of cardiomyopathy prior to diagnosis. In addition, renal infarcts presenting as a complication of TTS are relatively uncommon. In this case report, we discuss the case of a 61-year-old African American woman with a prior history of TTS being managed for abdominal pain who developed a recurrence of the TTS during the hospital course. Prompt diagnosis and management of the condition is crucial to improve outcomes especially in patients with thromboembolic phenomenon or hemodynamic instability. Further large-scale studies are warranted to determine outcomes of patients with recurrent Takotsubo cardiomyopathy with thromboembolic phenomenon.

We propose key features to differentiate these diagnoses, as shown in Fig.…”

Despite considerable interest in the syndrome of acute left ventricular (LV) ballooning, its pathophysiology has remained ill-defined. In this review, we explore observational data describing two etiologies of acute LV ballooning: neurohumoral classic Takotsubo Syndrome (TTS), and acute severe unrelenting left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction in patients with obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We describe the clinical presentation and varying pathophysiology of these presentations, explore how echocardiography and cardiac catheterization may help differentiate between the two etiologies, and detail differences in management. We highlight the significant overlap as well as key differentiating features of these conditions, with the aim to improve diagnostic awareness and accuracy and appropriately tailor therapy.
