RESUMO
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is characterized by severe left ventricular dysfunction. It presents as an acute coronary syndrome; however, the difference lies in the lack of coronary artery obstruction during a coronary angiogram. The left ventricular dysfunction extends beyond the area supplied with concordant coronary arteries. We describe a case of a 41-year-old female evaluated for acute coronary syndrome, later diagnosed with a unique reverse subtype of TCM.
