Abstract
Reverse takotsubo's cardiomyopathy is a rare and relatively unknown variant of takotsubo's cardiomyopathy, also known as stress cardiomyopathy or broken heart syndrome. There are significant differences in the patient age and clinical profiles between classic and reverse takotsubo's cardiomyopathy. Classic takotsubo's cardiomyopathy has been extensively described. However, the little described literature related to reverse takotsubo's cardiomyopathy is limited to the cardiology speciality, with a relative paucity described in radiology. We describe a case report of a 73 year-old female who was diagnosed with reverse takotsubo's cardiomyopathy on the basis of Cardiac MRI. Herein, we hope to bring more awareness of this condition and describe its features on MRI.
