Description
Summary:Among various diagnostic methods, echocardiography (EchoCG) is most often used to identify Takotsubo syndrome. Left ventricular apical ballooning and the absence of permanent local contractility disturbances makes it possible to confirm the diagnosis. Currently, the available literature provides insufficient data on longitudinal strain (LS) of various cardiac chambers in this condition. The current case report demonstrates complete restoration of left heart LS within 1 month with its initial significant decrease.
