We describe a case of stress-induced cardiomyopathy following epoprostenol withdrawal. A patient with pulmonary arterial hypertension presented with a malfunctioning Hickman catheter. Inappropriate withdrawal of epoprostenol resulted in shock. Evaluation confirmed stress-induced cardiomyopathy. Restarting epoprostenol resolved the electrocardiographic and echocardiographic abnormalities. This case meets Taskforce on Takotsubo Syndrome Stress-Induced Cardiomyopathy criteria. ().
我们描述了一例依前列醇撤药后发生的应激性心肌病病例。一名肺动脉高压患者出现了希克曼导管功能故障。依前列醇的不适当撤药导致休克。评估证实为应激性心肌病。重新使用依前列醇后,心电图和超声心动图异常得到缓解。该病例符合Takotsubo综合征应激性心肌病工作组的标准。()
