Abstract EN
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) is an entity of reversible cardiomyopathy known for its association with physical or emotional stress and may mimic myocardial infarction.
We report an exceedingly rare case of albuterol-induced TCM with moderate asthma exacerbation.
An interesting association that may help in understanding the etiology of TCM in the asthmatic population.
Although the prognosis of TCM is excellent, it is crucial to recognize beta agonists as a potential stressor.
