Abstract

We present a case of "apical-sparing Tako-Tsubo" syndrome in a postmenopausal woman with normal coronary arteries. Atypical variants of Tako-Tsubo like syndrome have been recently reported. Our patient showed a suggestive noncoronary-distributed dyskinetic area, in a clinical setting of typical chest pain, recent stressful events, troponin elevation and normal coronary angiogram; wall motion normalized within two days.
