Abstract

A 73-year-old woman presented with takotsubo syndrome with apical ballooning patterns after quarreling with her husband. Two years later, she was admitted to the hospital with chest pain after experiencing the same emotional stress. Her electrocardiogram showed different abnormalities compared to the previous event, and her left ventriculogram demonstrated takotsubo syndrome with mid-ventricular ballooning patterns. Recurrence of takotsubo syndrome with different ballooning patterns is rare. We herein report our experience with a patient who developed recurrent takotsubo syndrome with various ballooning patterns and different electrocardiographic abnormalities along with a literature review.
