As typified by this index case, TTC can mimic acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction and is considered to be a reversible form of cardiomyopathy characterised by a complete recovery of RWMA and LV function within weeks of presentation. 2 This is the first reported case of TTC in pregnancy as a manifestation of SARS-CoV-2 infection during this ongoing pandemic. ► The presentation of takotsubo cardiomyopathy can mimic STsegment elevation myocardial infarction but in the absence of angiographic evidence of significant obstructive coronary artery disease. ./cache/cord-341246-fz66z2p2.txt ./txt/cord-341246-fz66z2p2.txt
