Abstract

The Tako-Tsubo syndrome is also known as stress cardiomyopathy or apical ballooning. It corresponds to the clinical, analytical, electrocardiographic and echocardiographic acute coronary syndrome, in which the lack absence of significant blockages in the coronary arteries, with the subsequent full recovery of the ventricle, ensures the diagnostic. Although it is not a complication-free diagnostic, it usually evolves with good prognosis. In our article we talk about a female worker with a stressful situation which triggers the symptom.
