A case of Takotsubo syndrome during a multiple sclerosis brainstem relapse.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:We report a case of a woman affected by relapsing remitting Multiple Sclerosis who developed acute left ventricular dysfunction in the context of a severe brainstem relapse, one month after an attempt of in-vitro fertilization. DISCUSSION:The characteristics of our case are consistent with the hypothesis of a possible causal association between an acute medulla oblongata lesion and the occurrence of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. CONCLUSION:Our case adds to previous reports in this field and calls for awareness of this exceptional extra-neurological manifestation of MS. It seems also to confirm the possible association between MS relapses and ovarian stimulation.
