摘要
The left ventricular apical systolic dysfunction syndrome was a rare acute cardiac syndrome.Its clinical presentation and electrocardiography were similar to acute myocardial infarction.The syndrome was characterized by transient ventricular wall-motion abnormalities involving the left ventricular apex and mid-ventricle in the absence of obstructive epicardial coronary disease.Cardiac enzyme was normal or minor elevation.At present,the cause of the syndrome is unknown.In this paper,we describe a 56-year-old female patient.She was admitted in hospital for acute appendititis and the transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome.She developed acute heart failure and septic shock in the hospital.The drainage of the appendiceal abscess was done and the heart failure and septic shock recovered completely in a few days.
SUMMARY The left ventricular apical systolic dysfunction syndrome was a rare acute cardiac syndrome. Its clinical presentation and electrocardiography were similar to acute myocardial infarction. The syndrome was characterized by transient ventricular wall-motion abnormalities involving the left ventricular apex and mid-ventricle in the absence of obstructive epicardial coronary disease. Cardiac enzyme was normal or minor elevation. At present, the cause of the syndrome is unknown. In this paper, we describe a 56-year-old female patient. She was admitted in hospital for acute appendititis and the transient left ventricular apical ballooning syndrome. She developed acute heart failure and septic shock in the hospital. The drainage of the appendiceal abscess was done and the heart failure and septic shock recovered completely in a few days.
