Abstract: Tako-tsubo syndrome or cardiomyopathy also referred to as transient apical ballooning syndrome, stress cardiomyopathy or broken heart syndrome is a well-recognized syndrome typically characterized by transient and reversible left ventricular dysfunction that develops in the setting of acute severe emotional or physical stress. Increased catecholamine levels have been proposed to play a central role in the pathogenesis of the disease, although the specific pathophysiology of this condition remains to be fully determined.
