TAKOTSUBO SYNDROME AND CORONARY ARTERY FISTULA : CASE REPORT AND LITERATURE REVIEW
Takotsubo syndrome (TTS) has been reported in various clinical conditions. Coronary artery fistula (CAF) is diagnosed in 0.2- 0.4% of patients undergoing coronary angiography. Pathologic communication between coronary artery (e.g., left anterior de¬scending coronary artery - LAD) and cardiac chambers (e.g., left ventricle - LV) is cameral type of CAF which particularly predis¬pose to myocardial ischemia due to a steal syndrome. Eight cases of coexistent TTS and CAF have been reported so far; in 6 of them LAD cameral fistulas drained LV, in 2 others communications between coronary arteries and pulmonary artery were found. The authors describe a case of a 75-year-old female, admitted due to chest pain and dyspnea. Her clinical picture with ST-segment elevation in ECG, moderately increased troponin I and apical ballooning in echocardiography, was more typical for TTS than for myocardial infarction; besides that, color doppler imaging was suggestive of multiple CAF to LV. Coronary angiography showed communication between all (normal) coronary arteries and LV. Throughout the conservative therapy, first, an improve¬ment and then normalization of LV function were observed after 2 and 6 days, respectively. Chest x-ray and computed tomogra¬phy revealed mediastinal tumor (eventually diagnosed as lung cancer). Cardiac magnetic resonance performed after one month did not show late gadolinium enhancement. During the course of 24 months follow-up, she was taking bisoprolol and ramipril and her cardiologic state remained stable, even during chemotherapy and radiotherapy. The authors collected the clinical data of all 9 cases with concomitant TTS and CAF. Specific TTS triggering factors/predisposing conditions were present in all patients, which has indicated that coexistence of TTS and CAF is rather coincidental.
