| Popis: |
The authors report the case of a 49 year old woman who, on two occasions four years apart, presented with cardiogenic shock following the same type of intense emotional stress. Acute left ventricular systolic dysfunction in the initial phase regressed completely with drugs. A diagnostic investigation excluded atheromatous coronary artery disease, myocarditis and pheochromocytoma. Two hypotheses remained: prolonged coronary spasm causing myocardial stunning or acute catecholaminergic cardiomyopathy secondary to the stress. |
