Abstract
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TK-CM) is a reversible acute left ventricular dysfunction that cannot be explained by an obstructive coronary lesion. The aim of our study was to explore the possible correlation between the incidence of TK-CM in summer and the average temperature, number of heat waves or number of days hotter than 30°C. 482 patients presented an acute coronary syndrome in the summers of 2012 until 2017 in our region. 15 patients met the inclusion and exclusion criteria and were diagnosed as TK-CM. The study analysis showed a statistically correlation between the number of heatwaves and the incidence of TK-CM (coefficient of correlation: 0.77; p = 0.04). This comforts the hypothesis of climatic influence on this pathology.
