Case report: A patient with transient sigmoid septum in takotsubo syndrome with left ventricular outflow tract obstruction.

ABSTRACT: Left ventricular outflow tract obstruction is now recognized as a common complication of takotsubo syndrome, resulting in more serious acute and long-term outcomes. We describe a case of takotsubo syndrome where a transient sigmoid septum produced left ventricular outflow obstruction and explore the mechanisms leading to this occurring. This phenomenon has not been previously described. .
