Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy Associated with Peritonitis in Peritoneal Dialysis Patient

Abstract: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is characterized by clinical and electrocardiographic features that mimic acute myocardial infarction, normal or mildly elevated cardiac enzymes, distinctive left ventricular wall motion abnormalities, and absence of significant obstructive coronary artery disease. Often there is a history of emotional stress and usually encountered in postmenopausal women. Excessive catecholamine stimulation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of TTC. Usually, this condition is reversibl… Show more

“…Some patients even present with normal concentrations of the corresponding necrosis biomarkers of the myocardium, despite severe symptoms or transient wall motion defects in the ventriculography or echocardiography mimicking myocardial ischemia. 11,21 From our review, we observed that cardiac enzymes were provided in 73% of the cases. Among these cases, the TnI enzyme was elevated in 10 patients, CKMB in 9 patients, and TnT and CK in 5 and 3 patients, respectively (see Table 3 for descriptive statistics).…”

“…Of a total of 1725 articles found [1341 with the precise Medical Subject Headings term (TTC)], we selected 26 articles dealing with 27 case reports (Table 1), 12 37 with an expected higher prevalence of women (n = 20, 74.1%). The mean age was 61.4 ± 13.7 years and bacterial infections were more frequent (n = 23, 85.2%).…”
