I read with great interest the report by Demir et al.
published in the July 2016 issue of the journal[1]
about the 27-year-old woman who suffered ventricular fibrillation (VF) while recovering from propofol
anesthesia after undergoing endoscopic nasal sinus
surgery, and who, after successful resuscitation, was
diagnosed with inverse Takotsubo syndrome (TTS),
a phenotypic variant more commonly seen in young
patients than classic Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
