Sumario:Background and Objectives: Takotsubo Syndrome (TS) constitutes one of the most recent clinical realities in modern cardiology. It is clinically similar to the acute coronary syndrome, in the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease. Case Presentation: We described a case of a female patient affected by TS and left ventricular apical thrombus. Several studies described the cardiological syndrome, overlooking the neuropsychological and psychological outcomes. We aimed to assess the advantages of an integrated, multidisciplinary and multifunctional rehabilitation. Conclusions: This specific training contributed to reducing the tolerance to frustration given by her communication’s difficulty. It has favored a good therapeutic alliance and a good success of the psychotherapeutic path, guaranteeing the reduction of her anxious symptoms and an improvement in the emotive and relational status.
