Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy (TCM) After Uncomplicated Paraesophageal Hernia Repair: A Case Report and Review on Postoperative TCM

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a rare stress-induced condition that appears rarely in suspected acute myocardial infarction cases. It causes unexplained left ventricular failure, but most cases are reversible with supportive treatment. In this report, we present the case of a 70-year-old female w...

description Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is a rare stress-induced condition that appears rarely in suspected acute myocardial infarction cases. It causes unexplained left ventricular failure, but most cases are reversible with supportive treatment. In this report, we present the case of a 70-year-old female who developed acute hypotension after a laparoscopic Toupet fundoplication on postoperative day one, requiring care in the surgical intensive care unit. Following consultation with the cardiology service and further imaging and tests, she was diagnosed with TCM. This report outlines the potential mechanisms and management of TCM in the intensive care unit, emphasizing the importance of prompt diagnosis and treatment.
