Figure Upper left: EKG on admission; upper right: EKG on hospital day 6 showing resolution of the ST elevation and development of T wave inversion in the inferior leads II, III and aVF and precordial leads V4, V5, and V6; lower: left ventriculogram, which revealed impaired ventricular function in diastole (left) and in systole (right) demonstrating the apical ballooning typical in Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
