Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy is a transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome also known as stress-induced cardiomyopathy. This reversible cardiomyopathy without epicardial coronary artery disease mimics acute myocardial infarction. Right ventricular involvement, which has been infrequently reported, is present in about a quarter of cases of Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy and is associated with a more severe clinical outcome. We report the case of a 55-year-old postmenopausal woman with transient biventricular apical ballooning. She recently had acute exacerbation of multiple sclerosis. Regional and global function of both ventricles was estimated using two-dimensional speckle tracking strain echocardiography.
应激性心肌病是一种短暂性左心室心尖部气球样综合征，也被称为应激性心肌病。这种无冠状动脉疾病的可逆性心肌病酷似急性心肌梗死。右心室受累情况较少被报道，约四分之一的应激性心肌病病例存在右心室受累，且与更严重的临床结局相关。我们报告一例55岁绝经后女性出现短暂性双心室心尖部气球样变的病例。她近期患有多发性硬化急性加重。使用二维斑点追踪应变超声心动图评估双心室的局部和整体功能。
