UNLABELLED: Reverse takotsubo syndrome, a variant of takotsubo cardiomyopathy, is an acute left ventricular failure characterized by the basal akinesis/hypokinesis associated with apical hyperkinesis. Its presentation is similar to that of the acute coronary syndrome.
CASE PRESENTATION: The authors present a case of a 49-year-old woman, a vice principal at a local school with a history of hypertension, who was brought to our center after she collapsed while giving a graduation speech. Reverse takotsubo was a presumed diagnosis after we ruled out other differentials.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: The pathophysiology of reverse takotsubo syndrome is poorly understood. It might be due to a different pattern of catecholamine-mediated myocardial dysfunction than classic takotsubo cardiomyopathy. It is often associated with physical and/or emotional stressors.
CONCLUSION: Supportive treatment and identification and prevention of triggers can reduce the recurrence of reverse takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Physicians should be aware of various triggers for this condition.
