RESUMO
A 66-year-old female was found hypotensive in ventricular tachycardia (V-tach). Workup confirmed septic shock and takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) with left ventricular (LV) thrombus. Despite the initiation of anticoagulation therapy, she developed an embolic stroke on day 14. Malignant ventricular arrhythmia and LV thrombosis are rare complications of TCM. However, there is no specific guideline regarding prophylactic anticoagulation.
