  • Abstract
    A 66-year-old woman presented with acute pulmonary edema followed by cardiogenic shock. Emergency left ventriculography demonstrated typical apical ballooning of takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Coronary angiogram and intravascular ultrasonography did not reveal significant coronary artery disease. Within days, the left ventricular systolic function returned to normal.
