- Abstract
The article presents a case study on the diagnosis of the mid-ventricular Takotsubo cardiomyopathy to a 48 year old woman in Great Britain. The clinical examination and the coronary angiography were conducted to be able to determine the causes of the acute central chest pain associate with dyspnoea. The signs and symptoms exhibited were associated to stress-induced cardiomyopathy which affects postmenopausal women.
