Abstract(s)

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TKC) is a reversible, yet potentially fatal, syndrome triggered by stressful conditions, including seizures, with increasing recognition in clinical practice. We report a TKC in a patient with unexplained sinus tachycardia and troponin elevation after generalized seizures.
