Takotsubo syndrome complicated by ventricular thrombosis and pericarditis

Takotsubo syndrome is a heart disease characterized by transient ventricular dysfunction; although it is considered a benign pathology, it is not free from serious complications. Intraventricular thrombosis is a rare occurrence as well as pericarditis, and the simultaneous presence of both complications is very exceptional. Here we describe a case. Diagnosis and therapeutic management was successfully guided by multimodality imaging.
