Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTS) is an extremely rare complication of fluorouracil containing chemotherapy regimes such as FOLFOX used for colorectal cancer, occurring in only five previous case reports. Due to its potentially fatal outcomes, yet infrequent presence in the literature, it is worthwhile reviewing the clinical features and outcomes of this phenomenon.
CASE SUMMARY: A 54-year-old lady was admitted with cardiogenic shock. A cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) showed mid-ventricle to apical hypokinesis and confirmed TTS. She was managed with inotropes and non-invasive ventilation after which she recovered fully both clinically and in her CMR features 6 weeks following discharge.
DISCUSSION: This is the first case showing the acute CMR features of this complication and highlights the need for awareness of this rarely occurring cardiotoxicity. It also shows the potentially fatal phenomenon can be fully reversible when diagnosed and managed promptly even in patients with metastatic cancer and critical illness.
