Abstract
Stress-related cardiomyopathy (SRC), initially referred to as Tako-Tsubo cardiomyopathy and later as apical ballooning syndrome, has been largely observed in postmenopausal women. It is frequently precipitated by a stressful event. This is a case report of a 31-year-old woman who experienced SRC immediately after a bilateral mastectomy.Entities:
