A case of takotsubo cardiomyopathy triggered by asthma exacerbation
after mRNA-based vaccination for coronavirus disease 2019
Abstract
Recent studies have reported that coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19)
vaccination can exacerbate asthma. Status asthmaticus sometimes induces
takotsubo cardiomyopathy. We present a case of takotsubo cardiomyopathy
triggered by asthma exacerbation after the mRNA-based vaccination.
Therapies for status asthmaticus resulted in prompt improvement of
respiratory failure and cardiac-apex ballooning.
