In commenting on a case report of a 55-year-old man who suffered Takotsubo syndrome (TTS), in the setting of receiving chemotherapy with cytarabine and daunorubicin for acute myeloid leukemia, the author expresses his views that TTS in the setting of chemotherapy for malignancies may not be chemotherapeutic drug-specific (like in the chemotherapeutic drug induced-cardiomyopathy), but may be due to the emotional and physical stresses resulting from the realization of having diagnosed with a malignancy, and the diagnostic testing, and therapeutic management which follows.
在评论一名55岁男性患应激性心肌病(TTS)的病例报告时,该男子因急性髓系白血病正在接受阿糖胞苷和柔红霉素化疗,作者表达了他的观点,即在恶性肿瘤化疗背景下发生的TTS可能并非化疗药物特异性的(如化疗药物诱导的心肌病那样),而是可能归因于确诊患有恶性肿瘤、后续的诊断检测以及治疗管理所带来的情绪和身体压力。
