Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Takotsubo Syndrome Patients with Gastrointestinal Diseases: A Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) is identified by its acute and transient impairment of left ventricular systolic function. Although recent research has highlighted occurrences of TTS among individuals with gastrointestinal diseases (GI diseases), comprehensive and systematic investigations focusing on this patient demographic are still scarce.

Methods

This retrospective study analyzed case reports and series that documented an association between gastrointestinal diseases (GI diseases) and Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). We conducted comprehensive searches across PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Database to identify relevant cases.

Results

In patients with gastrointestinal-induced Takotsubo syndrome (GI-TTS), the primary reasons for admission were pancreatitis (15.48 %)
