A case of atypical TTC. (A) Cine CMR image during systole shows mid-anterior dyskinesia as indicated by the yellow arrows. (B, C) CMR images in the sub-acute phase show that the area of LGE was well matched with the area of wall motion abnormality as indicated by the yellow arrows (B: vertical long axis, C: short axis at mid portion). (D) In follow-up CMR images of the LGE inversion recovery sequence, normal images are observed at 6 months after onset as indicated by the asterisk. CMR indicates cardiac magnetic resonance; LGE, late gadolinium enhancement; and TTC, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
