Résumé

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is characterized by transient apical ventricular dysfunction typically induced by acute stress. Acute cerebral events including ischemic stroke (IS) or epileptic events (EEs) may be associated with massive catecholamine release. We aimed to identify the characteristics and outcomes of patients who experienced the Takotsubo syndrome complicated by IS or EE.
