Takotsubo Syndrome Occurring after mRNA COVID-19 Vaccination in a Patient with Graves' Disease.

Cardiovascular events such as myocarditis following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination are increasing. We present a 67-year-old postmenopausal woman with Takotsubo Syndrome and Graves' disease after mRNA COVID-19 vaccination. She developed chest pain and shortness of breath one week after vaccination. An electrocardiogram revealed ST elevation in the precordial leads. Coronary angiography revealed the absence of obstructive coronary artery disease, and the left ventriculography showed a typical feature with apical ballooning. Laboratory workup showed the elevation of free T4 and thyrotropin receptor antibodies. It was presumed that Takotsubo Syndrome and Graves' disease were probably related to the COVID-19 mRNA vaccination. The patient was treated with low-dose bisoprolol, diuretics, carbimazole, and steroid and discharged uneventfully. The mRNA COVID-19 vaccination is still safe and effective to defend against COVID-19 pandemic. However, clinicians should be aware of the possible cardiovascular adverse events other than myocarditis following vaccination.
