Two cases of tako-tsubo cardiomyophaty in Caucasians

Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy is a recently described disease characterized by chest pain, transient left ventricular dysfunction and specific electrocardiographic changes. The disease takes its name from the typical left apical ballooning observed at left ventriculogram. Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy was first described by Sato in 1990. Since then sporadic cases were reported by Japanese authors, and only a few European publications are available. We describe 2 cases of patients affected by this syndrome.

INSUFFICIENZA CARDIACA ACUTA E CARDIOMIOPATIE: UN CASO CLINICO

Isolated noncompaction of left ventricular myocardium is a rare congenital heart disease, characterized by an excessive prominence of trabecular meshwork, spaced out by deep intertrabecular recesses, consequent to the arrest of the normal myocardial embryogenesis. Although there are numerous descriptions, the pathophysiological effects of the structural alterations, like the clinical spectrum and the evolution of the disease, are not fully clarified. In this paper we evaluated the natural history of the disease, the family incidence and the alterations of the systolic and diastolic function. An interesting case report is described concerning a patient affected by noncompaction and atrial fi…
