Summary

Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy is new clinical syndrome which mimic acute myocardial infarction. The main characteristic is apical ballooning of the left ventricular wall during systole and normal findings on coronary arteries. Pathophysiology is not known, very important is definitively the role of catecholamines. The electrocardiography, echocardiography, left ventricular angiography and coronary angiography are methods used in diagnosis of this syndrome. The therapy is only symptomatic, in cases with severe complications mechanical support of circulation should be used.

Key words:
Tako-tsubo cardiomyopathy – pathophysiology – epidemiology – diagnosis – therapy
