Περίληψη:
Stress induced (Takotsubo) cardiomyopathy (TC) represents an acute heart
failure syndrome triggered by physical or emotional stressors. COVID-19
pandemic has caused an unprecedented health crisis resulting in fear,
distress and anxiety, with emerging cardiovascular implications.
COVID-19 related stress can act as potential trigger for TC. We present
a case of an elderly female who developed TC due to stress surrounding
COVID-19.
