Apical ballooning syndrome (ABS) is a new and uncommon, yet very interesting, clinical phenomenon regarded as one of the important elements of differential diagnosis in acute myocardial infarction. It was first described in 1990. The absence of obstructive coronary artery disease among others is a typical feature of ABS, required to make a final diagnosis. We describe a case of a woman with ultrasonographically confirmed tight stenosis in the right coronary artery, yet showing all other characteristics of ABS.
心尖气球样变综合征（ABS）是一种新的、不常见但非常有趣的临床现象，被视为急性心肌梗死鉴别诊断的重要因素之一。它于1990年首次被描述。除其他因素外，无阻塞性冠状动脉疾病是ABS的典型特征，这是做出最终诊断所必需的。我们描述了一例女性病例，其经超声检查证实右冠状动脉存在严重狭窄，但却表现出ABS的所有其他特征。
