Abstract
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy is recently defined reversible left ventricular dysfunction and apical ballooning resembling acute myocardial infarction. Although electrocardiographic, echocardiographic, biochemical and clinical findings indicate a possible acute coronary syndrome, coronary angiography reveals normal epicardial coronary arteries without any obstructing lesion. Here we describe a 52 year old woman admitted with chest pain and ST elevation with mildly increased cardiac enzymes. She was diagnosed as Takotsubo cardiomyopathy after 1 week of hospital stay and evaluation.
