Atypical Variants of Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy: Twin Case Reports.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is a well-known entity. We present two rare presentations of the same. Our first patient was diagnosed to have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy with ventricular tachycardia (VT), for which an ICD had been implanted. He later developed acute TTC with a large left ventricular (LV) apical thrombus. Our second patient was a 59 year old lady diagnosed to have TTC 2 years ago, from which she had recovered completely. She recently developed a recurrence of the same.
