Quadruple episodes of takotsubo cardiomyopathy: a case report.

We describe the case of an elderly female experiencing quadruple episodes of TTS with various triggers, LV dysfunctions and severities in a short period of 10 months. Although multiple recurrences of TTS is rare, it can occur with variable trigger factors and patterns of myocardial dysfunction. An analysis of multiple recurrences could aid in clarifying the pathophysiology of TTS.
