INTRODUCTION: Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TCM) mimics acute coronary syndrome and is characterized by reversible left ventricular (LV) apical ballooning in the absence of angiographically substantial coronary artery stenosis. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 31-year-old man with acute dejection, physical stress, and psychological strain from the dread of losing his work arrived at the emergency department with chest pain, and discomfort that had lasted 3 hours. DIAGNOSIS: Once the coronary angiography revealed normal epicardial coronaries, the case was retroactively diagnosed, and the levels of cardiac enzymes were increased. INTERVENTIONS: The amount of necrotic tissue was so little that the surgeon could only verbally convey it. It is completely closed with the help of a Dacron sheet. The patient received surgical closure of the VSR a few days after having a surgical consultation. OUTCOMES: No postoperative echocardiogram was required, and the patient was sent home in great general condition. CONCLUSION: The presence of TCM with a ruptured LV wall was extremely rare because our patient had neither clinical risk indicators nor a family history of coronary artery disease. As a Takotsubo syndrome severe complication, we underline the significance of identifying, diagnosing, and treating it.
