- Abstract
- Pheochromocytoma is a rare catecholamine secreting neuroendocrine tumor that causes hypertension and other
cardiovascular manifestations such as arrhythmia, acute heart failure, myocardial infarction, angina pectoris and
cardiomyopathy. Catecholamine-induced cardiomyopathy is characterized by an apical ballooning pattern (Takotsubo
cardiomyopathy) by transthoracic echocardiography. Recently, we treated an unusual case of pheochromocytoma that
presented with an inverted Takotsubo cardiomyopathy. Here we report the case and review the medical literature.(Korean

Keywords :Inverted Takotsubo cardiomyopathy, Pheochromocytoma
