Abstrakt: There is increasing evidence that Takotsubo cardiomyopathy behaves more like a highly variable and dangerous syndrome than an isolated cardiomyopathy. In this case report, we describe a case of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy complicated by complete heart block. We discuss the potential mechanisms for its etiology and examine the need for pacemaker placement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
