Cardiogenic shock following cardiac tamponade and Takotsubo in COVID-19
Introduction: Takotsubo is often described as stress-induced cardiomyopathy and is a known cause of heart failure. Objective: Review the clinical course of a young coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patient who developed Takotsubo following cardiac tamponade. Case presentation: A 42-year-old woman...

description | Introduction: Takotsubo is often described as stress-induced cardiomyopathy and is a known cause of heart failure. Objective: Review the clinical course of a young coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patient who developed Takotsubo following cardiac tamponade. Case presentation: A 42-year-old woman presented to the emergency department with fever, altered mental status and hypoxia. She was ultimately found to be in cardiac tamponade and within 2 hours of a pericardiocentesis she developed Takotsubo and was in cardiogenic shock. Her family decided to place her on comfort measures and she died the same day. Discussion: This case illustrates the increasing number of cardiovascular complications being reported in COVID-19 and highlights the importance of clinicians to be aware of these challenges. Conclusion: Here, we report a distinct presentation of cardiogenic shock in a young COVID-19 patient. The rapid onset of her suspected Takotsubo and the severity of her disease were striking features in this case. |
