Abstract

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy or stress-induced cardiomyopathy is a cardiac syndrome of a reversible, transient left ventricular dysfunction that is caused by emotional and/or physical stress and surgery. Its clinical manifestations are similar to acute myocardial ischemia in absence of coronary artery lesion. It is more common in middle-aged women, and the prognosis is favourable. We report the case of a 32-year-old male patient who underwent a total colectomy, developed stress-induced cardiomyopathy and had poor outcome despite extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO).
