Stress cardiomyopathy (SC) syndrome represents a reversible form of cardiomyopathy that commonly presents proximate to an acute emotional or physiologic stressor. The clinical presentation is similar to an acute coronary syndrome in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease to explain the unusual distribution of associated transient wall motion abnormalities. Postmenopausal women seem particularly prone to SC for unclear reasons. The pathophysiology of the syndrome is unknown but may involve pathologic sympathetic myocardial stimulation.
应激性心肌病(SC)综合征是一种可逆性心肌病,通常在急性情绪或生理应激源出现后不久发病。临床表现类似于急性冠状动脉综合征,但不存在阻塞性冠状动脉疾病来解释相关短暂性室壁运动异常的不寻常分布。绝经后女性似乎特别容易患应激性心肌病,原因不明。该综合征的病理生理学尚不清楚,但可能涉及病理性交感神经对心肌的刺激。
