摘要：
We evaluated left ventricular (LV) function by three-dimensional echocardiography (3DE) in a patient with takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TC). An 82-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with a suspicion of acute myocardial infarction but was diagnosed as TC by coronary angiography and left ventriculography (LVG). Three-dimensional echocardiography showed circular asynergy from the midventricle to the apex associated with hyperkinesis of the base and volumetric data very close to those obtained by LVG. Thus, 3DE is a useful tool in evaluating regional wall motion abnormalities and LV volume in patients with TC.
